Zeptoseconds: New World Record in Short Time Measurement As Physicists Track the Propagation of Light in a Molecule – SciTechDaily
Physicists from Frankfurt, Hamburg and Berlin track the propagation of light in a molecule. In the global race to measure ever shorter time spans, physicists fr…

The photon (yellow, coming from the left) produces electron waves out of the electron cloud (grey) of the hydrogen molecule (red: nucleus), which interfere with each other (interference pattern: violet-white). The interference pattern is slightly skewed to the right, allowing the calculation of how long the photon required to get from one atom to the next.
