5. In a recent paper [P. Antoine, A. L'Huillier and M. Lewenstein, Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 1239 (1996)] it has been shown that the macroscopic (i.e., propagated) harmonic signal consisting of several high harmonics is locked in phase and appears in a form of an attosecond pulse train. By combining such train of pulses with the fundamental field and shifting it appropriately in time, it is indeed possible to enhance an electron injection to the continuum at certain times [P. Antoine, P. Salières, M. Lewenstein, M. Gaarde, and A. L'Huillier (unpublished)].

10. Note that such a factorization makes sense for the bound states, since they are not strongly modified by the field. On the contrary, in general, it cannot be applied for the states in the continuum.
