Abstract
This lecture can be of use to those physicists who are interested in the following questions:
-
i)
What is the dynamics of laser-induced ionisation in the strong-field limit?
-
ii)
How does an electric field help an electron to tunnel through a barrier?
-
iii)
What is the traversal time for tunneling?
