Angular streaking in strong field ionization of chiral molecules

We report on a chiral observable upon ionization of a chiral molecule (methyloxirane) by a strong elliptically polarized laser field: a rotation of the photoelectron momentum distribution, which is enantiosensitive and forward/backward asymmetric. We explain this forward/backward asymmetric rotation...
