Arvinder Sandhu - Research Interests


I am an experimental ultrafast physicist working in the fields of Atomic, Molecular, Optical and Plasma physics (AMOP). My research is geared towards exploration of variety of phenomenon – from gas phase molecular dynamics to the high energy density plasma processes. These dynamics can occur from picoseconds, down to attoseconds timescales. In energy domain we observe processes occurring from sub-eV to MeV energies. Research projects which I have been recently involved with are -

  • High harmonic generation in hollow waveguides - XUV sources, attosecond pulse trains - generation and applications

  • Carrier Envelope Phase Stabilization techniques for grating based Ti:Sapphire ultrashort pulse amplifier systems.

  • Cold Target Recoil Ion Momentum Spectroscopy (a.k.a. Reaction Microscope) for coincidence imaging of molecular or atomic fragments.

  • Time resolved experiments to probe ultrafast dynamics in atoms, molecules and plasmas using X-ray and electrons in both high average power and high peak power regime.
