Abstract

Despite its long-standing usefulness for the analysis of various processes in intense laser fields, it is well-known that the KFR or strong-field approximation (SFA) does not account for the final-state Coulomb interaction for ionisation. Various ad hoc attempts have been made in the past to face this problem within the SFA, however, till now no systematic S-matrix expansion accounting for it has been found. To overcome this long standing limitation of SFA we present here a systematic series expansion of the strong-field S-matrix that could accounts for the final-state Coulomb interaction in all orders.
