Abstract
Using the quantum–orbit formalism we consider the influence of the backward-scattering quantum orbits on the low-energy above-threshold ionization spectra. It is shown that the corresponding ionization rate exhibits sharp peaks for electron energies ( is the electron ponderomotive energy) at the same places where the forward-scattering-induced low-energy structures appear. The corresponding incident rescattering electron velocities are very small. Semiclassical expressions for the positions of these peaks as functions of and the ionization potential are derived.
