This book documents the recent vivid developments in the research
field of ultrashort intense light pulses for probing and
controlling ultrafast dynamics. The recent fascinating results in
studying and controlling ultrafast dynamics in ever more
complicated systems such as (bio-)molecules and structures of meso-
to macroscopic sizes on ever shorter time-scales are presented. The
book is written by some of the most eminent experimental and
theoretical experts in the field. It covers the new groundbreaking
research directions that were opened by the availability of new
light sources such as fully controlled intense laser fields with
durations down to a single oscillation cycle, short-wavelength
laser-driven attosecond pulses and intense X-ray pulses from the
upcoming free electron lasers. These light sources allowed the
investigation of dynamics in atoms, molecules, clusters, on
surfaces and very recently also in nanostructures and solids in new
regimes of parameters which, in turn, led to the identification of
completely new dynamics and methods for controlling it. Example
topics covered by this book include the study of ultrafast
processes in large molecules using attosecond pulses, control of
ultrafast electron dynamics in solids with shaped femtosecond laser
pulses, light-driven ultrafast plasmonic processes on surfaces and
in nanostructures as well as research on atomic and molecular
systems under intense X-ray radiation. This book is equally helpful
for people who would like to step into this field (e.g. young
researchers), for whom it provides a broad introduction, as well as
for already experienced researchers who may enjoy the exhaustive
discussion that covers the research on essentially all currently
studied objects and with all available ultrafast pulse sources.
