Time analysis of above-threshold ionization in extreme-ultraviolet laser pulses

Description

The strong field ionization dynamics of an atom in a strong extreme-ultraviolet radiation field is investigated using numerical solutions of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation. The analysis of the electron quantum distribution in phase space after the interaction provides detailed information on the ionization time evolution. It evidences the interrelation among the periodic slow drift of the bound electron wave packet in the highly oscillating field, the modulation of the ionization wave packet, and the previously unknown fine structure of above-threshold ionization spectra in the stabilization regime.
