Abstract
We develop a new model of a Thomas-Fermi cluster that describes the distrib ution of electrons in alkaline clusters with many atoms. We examine the cla ssical multiple ionization of such a cluster by a strong electromagnetic fi eld. Finally, we calculate the degree of ionization as a function of the fi eld strength.
