RUI: Photoionization and Photorecombination Processes in Atomic Theory

该项目涉及两个互补过程的理论研究。第一种是强场光电离，即电子在强激光下从原子中分离出来。这一领域的研究涉及广泛的计算机模拟，主要集中在了解双电离的动力学。相辅相成的研究领域是光复合，即电子与原子重新结合并发光。后一领域的研究将数学形式主义的发展与计算机应用相结合，以检查高温等离子体中可能发生的光复合过程。

The project involves theoretical study of two complementary processes. The first is strong-field photoionization, in which electrons are detached from atoms in intense laser light. Studies in this area involve extensive computer modeling and focus primarily on understanding the dynamics of double ionization. The complementary area of study is photorecombination, in which electrons reattach to atoms and emit light. Studies in this latter area combine the development of a mathematical formalism with computer application for examining photorecombination processes that can occur in high-temperature plasmas.
