Creating and Manipulating Vortices in Atomic Wavefunctions with Short Electric Field Pulses

We demonstrate the creation of vortices in the electronic probability density of an atom subject to short electric field pulses, how these vortices evolve and can be manipulated by varying the applied pulses, and that they persist to macroscopic distances in the spectrum of ejected electrons. This o...
