Angle-resolved RABBIT: theory and numerics [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 50 154002 (2017), 2017
Angle-resolved (AR) RABBIT measurements offer a high information content measurement scheme, due to the presence of multiple, interfering, ionization channels combined with a phase-sensitive observable in the form of angle and time-resolved photoelectron interferograms. In order to explore the characteristics and potentials of AR-RABBIT, a perturbative
