| Abstract | We provide a rigorous lower bound for the ionization probability of a Rydberg atom under the perturbation by a time-dependent electric eld in the form of an ultrashort pulse idealized as a Dirac-function. This estimate is of the form 1 ? O(F ?4 0) for large values of the electric eld F 0. For the hydrogen atom we also prove the scaling behavior F 0 n ?1 , predicted recently by Reinhold et al. Phys. Rev. for the electric eld required to ionize a given percentage of states with principal quantum number n. |
