Abstract
The strong field approximation (SFA) is one of the most successful theoretical approaches to tackle the problem of atomic or molecular ionization in intense laser fields. In the semi-classical limit, the SFA possesses an appealing interpretation in terms of interfering quantum trajectories, which mathematically originate from the saddle point approximation to the SFA transition matrix element. The trajectories not only allow to interpret particular features in photoelectron spectra in an intuitive way in terms of possible electron pathways typical for a quantum mechanical “multi-slit experiment” but also serve as a starting point for adopting Coulomb corrections.
