Description
When an atom is irradiated by intense electromagnetic field, the first photoionization act initiates the variety of competitive processes, such as sequential ionization, Auger decay, radiation decay and other [1]. As a result, the sample evolves and its evolution depends on radiation parameters: intensity, pulse duration and polarization. The last is often left behind the scenes, in particular, because accounting for the polarization increases number of degrees of freedom enormously. Here we present an approach based on a system of equations for statistical tensors [2], which are equivalent to a system of rate equations for population, but allows to shorten the number of equations noticeably.
The approach is applied to investigate the sequential multiple ionization of krypton at photon energy range 50-80 eV as an illustrative example. The calculations are performed for the pulse parameters close to modern free-electron laser facilities.
