Description

We theoretically propose a method to synthesize the first attosecond magnetic pulses with tunable waveform [1]. Our ab initio calculations predict a magnetic pulse with a duration of 787 as and a high flux density of ~1T at a few hundred nanometers from the source, paving the way for attosecond control and measurement of magnetization and chiral dynamics.
