Abstract
Intense laser fields play a central role in attosecond science (lasec=10−18s). They are being used to create asec xuv pulses via high harmonic generation and to measure asec electronic dynamics. Attoscience promises to spatially and temporally unravel fundamental microscopic processes, such as the making and breaking of molecular bonds. Two possible avenues are molecular tomography and laser induced electron diffraction. To make progress in this direction a thorough understanding of multi-electron dynamics in intense laser fields is needed.
