Abstract

We consider the influence of a low-frequency monochromatic external electromagnetic field (the laser) on two basic atomic processes: electron Coulomb bremsstrahlung and inelastic photon scattering on an electron bound in the ground state of a hydrogenic atom. We briefly describe the approximations adopted and illustrate in figures how the laser parameters modify the shape of the differential cross-sections and extend the energy domain for emitted electrons, due to simultaneous absorption or emission of a large number (hundreds) of laser photons.
