Abstract

We present calculations on the atomic delay in photoionzation obtained with different combinations of linearly and circularly polarized light, and show how a tensor operator approach can be used to readily obtain results for any combination from a single calculation of the radial integrals. We find that for certain choices of polarization and detection geometry a single time-delay measurement is enough to extract the atomic delay since the relative phase in a RABBIT type measurement will be imprinted on the photo electron anisotropy. We show further that the full angular dependence can be qualitatively understood from a plane wave analysis. The results are illustrated by many-body calculations of two-photon above threshold ionization on... (More)

We show further that the full angular dependence can be qualitatively understood from a plane wave analysis. The results are illustrated by many-body calculations of two-photon above threshold ionization on argon.
