Laser-assisted electron scattering seen with circularly polarized light for the first time
Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have succeeded in detecting laser-assisted electron scattering (LAES) using circularly polarized light for the first time. The use of circularly polarized light promises valuable insights into how atomic scale "helicity" impacts how electrons interact with matter and light.
