  Photon-assisted electron transport in ballistic graphene is analyzed using
scattering theory. We show that the presence of an ac signal (applied to a gate
electrode in a region of the system) has interesting consequences on electron
transport in graphene, where the low energy dynamics is described by the Dirac
equation. In particular, such a setup describes a feasible way to probe energy
dependent transmission in graphene. This is of substantial interest because the
energy dependence of transmission in mesoscopic graphene is the basis of many
peculiar transport phenomena proposed in the recent literature. Furthermore, we
discuss the relevance of our analysis of ac transport in graphene to the
observability of zitterbewegung of electrons that behave as relativistic
particles (but with a lower effective speed of light).
