PT Journal AU Goulielmakis, E TI Attosecond photonics: Extreme ultraviolet catastrophes SO Nature Photonics JI Nat. Photon. PY 2012 BP 142 EP 143 VL 6 IS 3 DE fromIPMRAS AB Extreme ultraviolet attosecond pulses, which emerge from the interaction of atoms with intense laser fields, play a central role in modern ultrafast science and the exploration of electron behaviour. Recent work now shows that catastrophe theory can help optimize the properties of these pulses. ER
