Abstract
We have discovered that the polarization of high harmonics generated by intense, short, elliptically polarized laser pulses is rotated with respect to the incident laser polarization. This strong-field effect is a test of models of intense laser-atom processes.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
