Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 143002 (2008) [4 pages]Large-Angle Electron Diffraction Structure in Laser-Induced Rescattering from Rare GasesReceived 18 December 2007; published 9 April 2008 We have measured full momentum images of electrons rescattered from Xe, Kr, and Ar following the liberation of the electrons from these atoms by short, intense laser pulses. At high momenta the spectra show angular structure (diffraction) which is very target dependent and in good agreement with calculated differential cross sections for the scattering of free electrons from the corresponding ionic cores. © 2008 The American Physical Society URL:
