Abstract

The method of two-photon approximation for multiphoton decay is applied to the decay of the 4d state in the hydrogen atom. In the process of four-photon decay the two-photon contribution that leads to radiation escape, from the interaction with matter, is considered. This may be helpful for a strict description of the recombination process in the hydrogen atom and, in principle, for the history of hydrogen recombination in the early universe.
