Journal of Contemporary Physics (Armenian Academy of Sciences) Aims and scope

Abstract

The tunnel ionization, induced by a weak electrostatic field, of a particle bound in an attractive one-dimensional power-law singular potential is analysed. An accurate approximation applicable for the general case of non-fractional power exponent is suggested.
