Two-dimensional photoelectron momentum distribution of hydrogen in intense laser field

Two-dimensional (2D) electron momentum distributions and energy spectra of a hydrogen in an intense laser field are calculated by solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation combined with the window-operator technique. Compared with the standard projection technique, the window-operator technique has the advantage that the continuum states of atoms can be avoided in the calculation. We show that the 2D electron momentum distributions and the energy spectra from those two techniques accord quite well with each other if an appropriate energy width is used in the window operator.
