58. When we speak of a "classically allowed region" or a "classical threshold," this is supposed to be understood as defined, in relation to Eqs. (17a)-(17c) at the end of Sec. Ill A. Whether description of NSDI genuinely requires quantum mechanics has recently been questioned [48].

61. Near some particular laser intensities, i.e., near the so-called channel closings, constructive interference may result in a substantial contribution of the longer orbits; see Ref. [29].

72. In the one-dimensional classical calculations of Ref. [48], back-to-back emission has been found to be associated with "speedup" collisions, where the returning electron is accelerated by the laser field into the recollision.
