The rise time of intense radiation determines the maximum field strength atoms can be
exposed to before their polarizability dramatically drops due to the detachment of an outer …

This paper has been prepared by the Symphony collaboration (University of Warsaw,
Uniwersytet Jagielloński, DESY/CNR and ICFO) on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of …

We present a simple, analytic, and fully quantum theory of high-harmonic generation by low-
frequency laser fields. The theory recovers the classical interpretation of Kulander et al. in …

We present high sensitivity electron energy spectra for xenon in a strong 50 ps, 1.053 μm
laser field. The above threshold ionization distribution is smoothly decreasing over the entire …

The application of the chirped-pulse amplification technique to solid-state lasers combined
with the availability of broad-bandwidth materials has made possible the development of …

We review the phenonomena which occur in multiphoton physics when the electric field of
the applied laser radiation becomes comparable with the Coulomb field strength seen by an …

We present photoelectron energy spectra for the rare gas atoms in strong 40 fs, 630 nm
laser pulses. A new property in the above threshold ionization distribution is described …

We present experimental measurements of vacuum ultraviolet light emission processes in a
15-Torr rare-gas medium exposed to a strong 1064-nm laser field. Apart from a small …

Our current understanding of molecular dynamics uses quantum mechanics as the basic
underlying theory to elucidate thc processes involved. Establishing numerical schemes to …

Multiphoton Processes in Atoms in intense laser-light fields is gaining ground as a
spectroscopic diagnostic tool. The authors present descriptions of processes occurring in …
