A group of three researchers earned the 2023 Nobel Prize in physics for work that has revolutionized how scientists study the electron - by illuminating molecules with attosecond-long flashes of light. But how long is an attosecond, and what can these infinitesimally short pulses tell researchers about the nature of matter?
