For the first time, scientists have been able to measure the quantum state of electrons ejected from atoms that have absorbed high-energy light pulses. This is thanks to a new measurement technique developed by researchers at Lund University. This could provide a better understanding of fundamental research in the second generation of quantum revolution. When high-energy light with a very short wa
