E. Cormier et al., DISCRETIZATION TECHNIQUES APPLIED TO THE STUDY OF MULTIPHOTON EXCITATION OF RESONANCES IN HELIUM, Journal of physics. B, Atomic molecular and optical physics, 26(23), 1993, pp. 4449-4463
Two-photon ionization of helium is investigated by using a discretizat
ion technique. Perturbative cross sections are calculated with a L2 ba
sis set (B-splines), the efficiency of such an approach is discussed i
n the context of above threshold ionization (ATI). We propose a parame
trization of the cross sections in the region of resonances. The role
of the correlations is discussed in a P - Q Feshbach projection treatm
ent.
