Two-photon ionization of Helium studied with the multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree-Fock method

The multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree-Fock method (MCTDHF) is applied for simulations of the two-photon ionization of Helium. We present results for the single- and double ionization from the groundstate for photon energies in the non-sequential regime, and compare them to direct solutions of the Schrödinger equation using the time-dependent (full) Configuration Interaction method (TDCI). We find that the single-ionization is accurately reproduced by MCTDHF, whereas the double ionization results correctly capture the main trends of TDCI.

Multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree-Fock calculations for photoionization of one-dimensional Helium

The multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree-Fock equations are discussed and solved for a one-dimensional model of the Helium atom. Results for the ground state energy and two-particle density as well as the absorption spectrum are presented and compared to direct solutions of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation.

Quantum kinetic approach to time-resolved photoionization of atoms

Theoretical approaches to the photoionization of few-electron atoms are discussed. These include nonequilibrium Greens functions and wave function based approaches. In particular, the Multiconfiguration Time-Dependent Hartree-Fock method is discussed and applied to a model one-dimensional atom with four electrons. We compute ground state energies and the time-dependent photoionization by the field a strong laser pulse with two different frequencies in the ultraviolet.

Nonequilibrium Green function approach to photoionization processes in atoms

We present a quantum kinetic approach for the time-resolved description of many-body effects in photoionization processes in atoms. The method is based on the non-equilibrium Green functions formalism and solves the Keldysh/Kadanoff-Baym equations in second Born approximation. An approximation scheme is introduced and discussed, which provides a complete single-particle description of the continuum, while the atom is treated fully correlated.
