Time delays for attosecond streaking in photoionization of neon

We revisit the time-resolved photoemission in neon atoms as probed by attosecond streaking. We calculate streaking time shifts for the emission of 2(p) and 2(s) electrons and compare the relative delay as measured in a recent experiment by Schultze et al. [Science 328, 1658 (2010)]. The B-spline R-matrix method is employed to calculate accurate Eisenbud- Wigner- Smith time delays from multielectron dipole transition matrix elements for photoionization. The additional laser field-induced time shifts in the exit channel are obtained from separate, time-dependent simulations of a full streaking process by solving the time-dependent Schr odinger equation on the single-active-electron level. The resulting accurate total relative streaking time shifts between 2(s) and 2(p) emission lie well below the experimental data. We identify the presence of unresolved shake- up satellites in the experiment as a potential source of error in the determination of streaking time shifts.
