Abstract
The absolute timing of the high-harmonic attosecond pulse train with respect to the generating IR pump cycle has been measured for the first time. The attosecond pulses occur after each pump field maxima (twice per optical cycle), in agreement with the “short” quantum path of the quasiclassical model of harmonic generation.
