Abstract

The interference structure of the angular distributions in the high-energy part of the above-threshold ionization spectrum is calculated. The components of the wave packet of the ionized electron that interfere with one another during the interaction with the parent ion are identified. It is shown that the angular distribution averaged over the interference oscillations is determined mainly by the angular dependence of the effective interaction time.
