High harmonic generation (HHG) spectroscopy has opened up a new frontier in ultrafast science, where electronic dynamics can be measured on an attosecond time scale. The strong laser field that triggers the high response also opens multiple quantum pathways for multielectron molecules, resulting complex process of rearrangement during ionization. Using combined experimental and theoretical approaches, we show how multi-dimensional HHG used to detect follow core sub-laser cycle scales. We...

By employing a nonlinear quantum kicked rotor model, we investigate the transport of energy in multidimensional chaos. Parallel numerical simulations and analytic theory demonstrate that interplay between nonlinearity Anderson localization establishes perfectly classical correspondence system, neglecting any time reversal. The resulting dynamics exhibits nonlinearly-induced, enhanced through soliton wave particles.
We have theoretically studied Anderson localization in a 2D+1 nonlinear kicked rotor model. The system shows very rich dynamical behavior, where the is suppressed and soliton wave-particles undergo superdiffusive motion.
