Prof. Nora Berrah’s research interests include investigations of the interaction of molecules and extended systems with weak and strong electromagnetic fields produced by various ultrafast table-top lasers and Free Electron Lasers (FELs). The research involves the use of intense femtosecond and attosecond pulses from table-top lasers and FELs in the VUV, XUV, and X-ray regimes to probe physical and chemical processes that happen on ultrafast time scales. The experiments are time-resolved and the research is conducted in strong partnership with theorists who use state-of-the art ab-initio calculations and simulations.
