Final Report Abstract

In summary, we have performed attosecond streaking spectroscopy experiments to measure time delays in the photoemission from molecules, with a particular focus on giant resonances. One of the most exciting other developments within this project was our contribution to the pioneering experiments at LCLS, implementing photoemission delay measurements at free-electron lasers.
