Excitation and ionization of Rydberg atoms by short half-cycle pulses
1999
Simple semiclassical formulas are derived for the probability of excitation and ionization of Rydberg atoms irradiated by a half-cycle pulse whose duration is shorter than the Kepler period. The calculated ionization probabilities are in good agreement with the experimental data of Jones, You, and Bucksbaum [Phys. Rev. Lett. 70, 1236 (1993)] and with previous calculations.
Large angular-momentum changing in a short half-cycle pulse interaction with a Rydberg atom
1999
We show that, in contrast to multiphoton absorption in atoms, the remote region from a nucleus is dominant in the process of a half-cycle pulse interaction with a Rydberg atom, and that this interaction produces a very large change in the angular momentum of the electron. We have found good agreement between classical trajectory Monte Carlo, semiclassical, and quantum-mechanical calculations for the energy distribution of the electron.
Classical form factor for nlm→n′l′m transitions in the hydrogen atom
2000
Abstract The form factor for nlm → n ′ l ′ m transitions in the hydrogen atom is deduced on the basis of kinematics of the classical mechanics. The consistency of this approach is verified by derivation of the known result for the transition probability averaged over m . The classical transition probability as a function of the final state energy and angular momentum is investigated comprehensively in the case of l = m =0.
One-dimensional twice kicked hydrogen atom
2004
Our simple theory for excitation of Rydberg atoms by two short, weak half-cycle pulses confirms the experimental data and results of previous calculations. We show that the stronger the field, the faster are the oscillations of the population .
Transition form factor of the hydrogen Rydberg atom
1997
The form factor for the transition between the hydrogenic states with parabolic quantum numbers n{sub 1}n{sub 2}m and n{sub 1}{sup {prime}}n{sub 2}{sup {prime}}m{sup {prime}} is obtained in a closed analytic form. The asymptotic limit of the transition form factor at large parabolic quantum numbers is derived, and a comparison with exact quantum calculations shows that the asymptotic limit is accurate in a wide region of parabolic quantum numbers and the momentum p transferred to electrons. A simple quasiclassical formula for the transition probability is given, and the range of quantum numbers corresponding to quasiclassically forbidden transitions are defined. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ita…
