Abstract

In this submission we report on experiments that were carried out with the aim of measuring the influence of the Coulomb potential on the trajectories of electron wave packets created by strong-field single ionization of Helium, Neon and Argon atoms. We control the trajectories of emitted electron wave packets on the time-scale of single field cycle by using a two-color laser field with an adjustable relative phase Δφ between the two colors. The detached electronic wave packets are characterized using the COLTRIMS technique.
