Director of the Attoscience and Ultrafast Optics group
Attosecond Pulses of light are a revolutionary tool for basic and applied science since they give us for the first time a camera that is fast enough to acquire crisp images of how and where electrons move. This is important since the motion of electrons determines literally everything, from how a chemical reaction happens, how we metabolise, or how materials and sensors work. The three winners represent this extremely fast-growing new interdisciplinary field of science very well to which many people have been contributing.
