Abstract

Numerical simulations are presented to validate the possible use of cutting-edge attosecond time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy to observe in real time the creation of an electronic wavepacket and subsequent electronic motion in a neutral molecule photoexcited by a UV pump pulse within a few femtoseconds.
