Abstract:Using the improved soft-core potential of Majorosi et al, it is shown that classically allowed transport competes with quantum tunneling during the ionization of atoms by ultrashort and intense laser pulses. This is done by comparing exact probability densities with the ones obtained from purely classical propagation using the Truncated Wigner Approximation. Not only is classical transport capable of moving trajectories away from the core, but it can also furnish ionization probabilities of the same order as t… Show more
