Abstract
We are testing a variety of methods to numerically treat the ionization of atomic hydrogen by a
strong lase r pulse. Besides providing high accuracy, the algorithms should be parallelizable in
order to handle the sometimes long propagation times needed to solve the time-dependent
Schrödinger equation for this fundamental strong-field problem. We report progress on
developing a computer code that will make such calculations possible on massively parallel
supercomputer platforms.
