Theory of tunneling ionization: Weak-field asymptotics, Stark shifts and multielectron effects

Lars Bojer Madsen
Aarhus Unversity
Recent attoclock experiments have allowed access to experimental information about the electron tunneling geometry (the natural coordinates of the tunneling current flow) and exit point. The importance of the inclusion of Stark shifts is discussed and multielectron effects are clearly identified by comparing results in argon and helium atoms.
In the second part of the talk, I will discuss the weak-field asymptotics of tunneling including dipole effects.
