N2 - This chapter reviews the basic physics behind recent attosecond measurements of electronic dynamics in atoms, solid surfaces, and nanoparticles at a level accessible to a beginning physics graduate student. It discusses the time-resolved "dressed" (or "streaked" photoemission and photoemission delay times based on the comparison of calculated, time-resolved photoelectron spectra with recent experiments. Examined on an attosecond timescale, photoemission from atoms is sensitive to details in the modeling, such as the electronic structure of the target and the photoemission dynamics. The interplay of experimental and theoretical investigations in the field of attosecond physics therefore allows for extremely sensitive tests which enhance our understanding of electronic and photonic dynamics in matter. Near-infrared (NIR)-dressed, attosecond XUV-photoemission spectroscopy, can be used to investigate fs to sub-fs dynamics in solids. The chapter discusses attosecond nanoplasmonic streaking and its application in the measurement of collective electron dynamics within nanostructures in external fields.
