Tunnel Ionization in Strong Fields in atoms and molecules and its applications

We look at the theory of ionization of atoms and molecules in the presence of a strong laser field. The history of ionization of atoms is reviewed and the methods used to calculate the ionization rates are examined in detail. In particular the quasi-classical methods used to solve for atomic rates a...
