Description

The ionization of excited hydrogen-like atoms in a femtosecond laser pulse is studied by direct numerical integration of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation for a quantum system in the field of an electromagnetic wave. Expressions are obtained for the ionization probability of the system as a function of the parameters of the laser pulse and the initial state of the atom. Ionization suppression is found, confirming the basic premises of the theory of interference stabilization of Rydberg atoms
