Elliptic Dichroism in Angular Distributions in Free-Free Transitions in Hydrogen

Abstract

We discuss here the effect of the photon helicity in laser induced and inverse bremstrahlung for {\it high energy scattering} of electrons by hydrogen atoms. We demonstrate that it is possible to find EDAD for high scattering energies of the electrons if the{\it \ dressing of the atomic target} by the laser field is taken into account. We consider higher optical frequencies of the laser field and we restrict ourselves to the use of moderate field intensities.
