This area involves the activities of four academic staff within CTAMOP: Professor Kenneth Taylor, Dr James McCann, Dr Hugo van der Hart and Dr Gleb Gribakin, and also Dr Daniel Dundas a RCUK Fellow in the Atomistic Simulation Centre.

Areas of interest include:

• Full-dimensionality integration of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for few-electron atom-laser interactions
• R-matrix Floquet theory for multiphoton processes
• Time-dependent R-matrix theory for atoms in ultra-short light pulses
• Analytical treatments
• Ultrashort intense laser-molecule dynamics
