Dynamical Organization of Recollisions by a Family of Invariant Tori
We consider the motion of an electron in an atom subjected to a strong linearly polarized laser field. We identify the invariant structures organizing a very specific subset of trajectories, namely, recollisions. Recollisions are trajectories which first escape the ionic core (i.e., ionize) and late...

| Sumario: | We consider the motion of an electron in an atom subjected to a strong linearly polarized laser field. We identify the invariant structures organizing a very specific subset of trajectories, namely, recollisions. Recollisions are trajectories which first escape the ionic core (i.e., ionize) and later return to this ionic core, for instance, to transfer the energy gained during the large excursion away from the core to bound electrons. We consider the role played by the directions transverse to the polarization direction in the recollision process. We compute the family of two-dimensional invariant tori associated with a specific hyperbolic-elliptic periodic orbit and their stable and unstable manifolds. We show that these manifolds organize recollisions in phase space. |
