Description

Electron-hydrogen collision in the presence of a circularly polarized laser field is studied within a formalism based in an appropriate space-translations transformaton and the Green's function formalism. The Born-Oppenheimer approximation for the scattering amplitude is obtained and the dependence of the differential and total excitation cross section on the electromagnetic field polarization is studied.
