摘要： Gating techniques have been widely used for the generation of isolated attosecond pulses(IAPs) by limiting the high harmonics generation(HHG) within one optical cycle of the driving laser. However, as only one optical cycle is taken advantaged, the IAP the energy can hardly be enhanced by using a long driving pulse. In this letter, we present a regime named pumping ionizing gating(PIG) to generate IAPs. Instead of traditional ionizing gating, a long pump dynamically reflected by fast-extending plasma grating(FEPG) is employed to continuously inject the energy to the driving(ionizing) pulse. The overlapping region of the pump reflection and frequency upconversion forms a narrow PIG, which opens a door to transfer the long-pump energy to IAPs. This regime is demonstrated by the particle-in-cell(PIC) simulation, at extremely wide plasma densities(0.02nc-0.5nc) and FEPG modulation depths(10%-60%). The three dimensional(3D) simulation shows a 330 as laser pulse is obtained by a 1.6-ps 1-$\mu$m pump, with the peak intensity 33 times as the pump, and a conversion efficiency around 0.1%.

摘要： We present the study of arcsecond scale radio continuum and OH line emission of a sample of known OH megamaser galaxies with $z \geq$ 0.15 using archival Very Large Array (VLA) data. And also the results of our pilot Five hundred meter aperture spherical radio telescope (FAST) observations of 12 of these OHM galaxies. The arcsecond-scale resolution images show that the OH emission is distributed in one compact structure and spatially associated with radio continuum emission. Furthermore, nearly all the fitted components are likely smaller than the beam size ($\sim$ 1.4"), which indicates that the broad OH line profiles of these sources originated from one masing region or that more components are distributed in sub-arcsec scales. The radio parameters, including brightness temperature, spectral index, and q-index, show no significant differences with the low-redshift OHM galaxies, which have significantly lower OH line luminosities. Because these parameters are indicators of the central power sources (AGN, starburst, or both), our results indicate that the presence of radio AGN in the nuclei may not be essential for the formation of OH emission. Over 1/3 of OHMs in this sample (6/17) show possible variable features likely caused by interstellar scintillation due to small angular sizes. We might underestimate this value because these sources are associated with this sample's highest OH line flux densities. Those with low OH line flux densities might need higher sensitivity observations to study the variabilities. These results support the compact nature of OH maser emission and a starburst origin for the OHMs in our selected sample.
