Chaotic Autoionization of the Relativistic Two-Electron Atom
arXiv:chao-dyn/9812027
Abstract
Chaotic autoionization of the relativistic two-electron atom is investigated. A theoretical analysis of chaotic dynamics of the relativistic outer electron under the periodic perturbation due to the inner electron, based on Chirikov criterion, is given. The diffusion coefficient, the ionization rate and time are calculated.
