Abstract

We show that, in contrast to multiphoton absorption in atoms, the remote region from a nucleus is dominant in the process of a half-cycle pulse interaction with a Rydberg atom, and that this interaction produces a very large change in the angular momentum of the electron. We have found good agreement between classical trajectory Monte Carlo, semiclassical, and quantum-mechanical calculations for the energy distribution of the electron.
