Abstract

SynopsisWe develop a time-dependent perturbation theory beyond the dipole approximation to analyze the two-photon ionization dynamics of atoms exposed to short laser pulses with an arbitrary polarization. Subse-quent applications of the PT method in the nonresonant regime allow us to analyze one of the most important nondipole effects, i.e., the linear-momentum-transfer law in the two-photon ionization process and to unveil the important role of the interferences between the dipole and nondipole transition pathways to the photoelectron momentum shift along the laser-propagation direction.
