Abstract
In this paper autoionizing states in the one-dimensional helium atom are investigated by numerical solution of the time-dependent twoelectron Schrodinger equation. The atom is irradiated by an extreme ultraviolet (XUV) attosecond pulse and a time-delayed infrared few-cycle laser pulse. The XUV pulse populates a superposition of doubly excited states, leading to Fano resonances in the photoelectron spectrum. It is demonstrated that the Fano line profile is strongly modified by the presence of the laser field. Laser-induced coupling between the different doubly excited states causes the population of autoionizing states that cannot be reached by absorbing a single XUV photon from the ground state. The resulting additional peaks in the photoelectron spectrum are modulated as a function of time delay. Furthermore, the photoelectron spectrum exhibits a fringe pattern that is determined by the time delay but is independent of the details of the laser pulse.
