Multiphoton stripping of noble gas atoms: a statistical interpretation

Michele Crance

Published Sep 14, 1984• 23 citations

Abstract

When noble gas atoms are irradiated by a strong light field, they may multiply ionise. The charge state distribution is interpreted by using a simple model based on a statistical description of multiphoton ionisation.

A statistical description for multiphoton stripping of atoms

Michele Crance

An atom irradiated by a strong light field may singly or even multiply ionise due to multiphoton ionisation processes. A model is proposed to describe the distribution of charge states as a function of the field intensity.

Note on resonant and non-resonant multiphoton ionisation

A. Szöke

Three recent experiments on multiphoton ionisation of atoms are interpreted. They show both resonant and non-resonant behaviour, and fit the predictions of a general theory. It is suggested that clean and unambiguous measurements of atomic parameters in strong laser fields can be obtained using extensions of these experiments.
