Abstract:

A detailed analysis of the attosecond streaking method is performed. For a class of measurements a consistent quantum theory of streaking is put forward, which allows a close analogy with the intuitive classical picture. In particular, an 'electron release distribution' in time and momentum can be defined. The mathematical and practical limitations of recovery of the release distribution from a limited set of measurements are discussed. Recovery procedures for monotonic and oscillatory streak fields are described. A simple formula for time-resolution is derived and confirmed by numerical experiments.
