The PUILS series delivers up-to-date reviews of progress in Ultrafast Intense Laser Science -- an emerging interdisciplinary research field. This volume focuses on the ionization of atoms and molecules, ultrafast responses of protons and electrons within a molecule, and more.

State of the art report of short time Laser physics Covers current application fields of intense Lasers in the attosecond technique Summarizes the coherent responses of gaseous and condensed matter to ultrashort intense laser pulses and the propagation of intense laser pulses Useful reference to researchers and graduate students alike Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
