We have observed the laser-assisted dynamic interference in the electron spectra triggered by attosecond pulse trains. The fingerprints of finer interference fringes, much smaller than the laser photon energy, have been clearly identified experimentally. Our measurements are successfully reproduced by theoretical simulations utilizing the numerical solution to the time-dependent Schrödinger equation and the strong-field approximation. Further explorations based on the saddle point analysis and a simple quantum model strengthen our finding and reveal the importance of the phase variations of the electron wave packets, which are modulated by the vector potential across the envelope of the strong laser pulse. Our studies show that the dynamic interference can be captured and the electron in the continuum can be effectively manipulated by the current attosecond-controlled multicolor laser approach.

Aerial images can cover a wide area and capture rich scene information. These images are often taken from a high altitude and contain many small objects. It is difficult to detect small objects accurately because their features are not obvious and are susceptible to background interference.

Detection of trace gases, such as radioactive carbon dioxide, clumped isotopes, and reactive radicals, is of great interest and poses significant challenges in various fields. Achieving both high selectivity and high sensitivity is essential in this context. We present a highly selective molecular spectroscopy method based on comb-locked, mid-infrared, cavity-enhanced, two-photon absorption.

Background: Manganese (Mn) is an essential metal that serves as a cofactor for metalloenzymes important in moderating the glutamate/glutamine cycle and other oxidative stress pathways. Typically, Mn is acquired through the diet, however, Mn overexposure can arise through drinking inadequately treated well water or inhalation of Mn-containing industrial byproducts. Mn toxicity disrupts dopaminergic neurotransmission resulting in a Parkinsonian disorder referred to as manganism.

Background: Bilingual Language Control (BLC) is a dynamic processing system that enables speakers to mitigate cross-language interference while conversing and transitioning between languages. Research indicates that neurodegenerative diseases may compromise the effectiveness of language-switching abilities in bilingual individuals, particularly those impacting the frontostriatal pathways. However, it remains unclear whether neurodegeneration affecting other neural pathways, such as Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), might influence the efficiency of BLC.
