Abstract
We present experimental data on the nonadiabatic strong field ionization of atomic hydrogen using elliptically polarized femtosecond laser pulses at a central wavelength of 390 nm. Our measured results are in very good agreement with a numerical solution of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE). Experiment and TDSE show four above-threshold ionization peaks in the electron's energy spectrum. The most probable emission angle (also known as "attoclock offset angle"or "streaking angle") is found to increase with energy, a trend that is opposite to standard predictions based on Coulomb interaction with the ion. We show that this increase of deflection angle can be explained by a model that includes nonadiabatic corrections of the initial momentum distribution at the tunnel exit and nonadiabatic corrections of the tunnel exit position itself.
