Abstract

A scheme to probe dissipative multielectron motion in time is introduced. In this context attosecond probing enables one to obtain information which is lost at later times and cannot be retrieved by conventional methods in the energy domain due to the incoherent nature of the dynamics. As a specific example we will trace the transient charging of ions in a rare-gas cluster during a strong femtosecond vacuum-ultraviolet pulse by means of delayed attosecond pulses.
