Physical Review Collection on Attosecond Science
The ability to generate ultrashort laser pulses of some-ten-attosecond duration has given rise to a new research field, attosecond science, to whose development this Collection is dedicated. The potential of attosecond science has recently been recognized by the Wolf Foundation (Wolf Prize 2022) as well as the Nobel Committee (Nobel Prize in Physics 2023), who honored Pierre Agostini, Paul Corkum, Ferenc Krausz, and Anne L’Huillier for their pioneering work shaping the field.
