Abstract
The problem of stimulated recombination at a resonance is investigated by a time-dependent, non-perturbative approach. The number of pairs recombined by a laser pulse is computed as a function of the intensity, of the pulse duration, and of the initial electron-energy distribution (as well as of the parameters which characterize the atomic resonance and its field-induced coupling to the final bound state). The role of spontaneous emission (or other paths) from the recombined state (if it is excited) is also discussed. Numerical results are given including an example of recombination to the ground state in the Sr atom.Keywords
