25. For the same physical system—the zero-range atom in the presence of an intense laser field—Faisal and Scanzano [Phys. Rev. Lett. 68, 2909 (1992)] in numerical solutions of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation observed small spikes at the positions 10 in the low-energy part of the spectrum.
26. Recently, Borca, Frolov, Manakov, and Starace [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 193001 (2002)] in an exact solution for the same system recovered the enhancements of the rescattering plateau. These papers are in the context of the threshold anomalies of formal scattering theory. In contrast, our paper provides a simple physical picture of the origin of the anomalies, which also affords high predictive power.
