Abstract
A two-dimensional model atom is employed to study the ionization behavior of helium subjected to strong laser fields in the high-frequency regime. The evolution of the system is studied by means of numerical integration of the Schrödinger equation beyond the dipole approximation. Ionization probabilities of the two-electron atom in highly intense laser fields have been calculated for different pulse shapes. It is confirmed that the mutual repulsion between the two electrons as well as the length of the laser pulses significantly alter the ionization probabilities of the system. Nondipole effects are shown to lead to a considerable increase of the ionization probabilities. For certain laser pulse shapes, a regime of ionization suppression is investigated which exists in addition to two-electron stabilization. The applicability of our model scheme to the case of heliumlike systems is discussed, and it is shown that stabilization may also occur in these systems, and how it is altered in dependence of the nuclear charge.
