Abstract
The high-intensity (about 1010 W cm-2) multiphoton ionisation spectrum of sodium atoms was measured under atomic beam conditions in the presence of a second intense laser field (about 1010 W cm-2). In addition to the expected two-photon resonances in the three-photon ionisation spectrum, peaks are observed which can be explained as resonantly enhanced five-photon processes.
