Ultrafast time-resolved laser spectroscopy is a technique that uses the interaction of light with matter to study the properties of physical systems. Researchers can generate laser pulses lasting mere attoseconds -- quintillionths of seconds -- to examine the nuclear dynamics in different states of matter, including single atoms.
