Atomic photoionization: When does it actually begin?

We analyze a time delay of one- and two-electron photoemission from an atom after absorption of an attosecond XUV pulse. We establish this delay by solving the time dependent Schrödinger equation and by subsequent tracing of the field-free evolution of the photoelectron wave packet. This delay can a...
