Theoretical Physics Department, Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science, Jadavpur, Calcutta - 700032, India. A theoretical treatment is presented to study the influence of a single mode, linearly polarized laser field on the dynamics of fast (e, 2e) collisions in a hydrogenic ion target [1, 2] in the framework of a distorted wave approximation. The incident and outgoing particles are considered in the framework of Coulomb ā Volkov approximation [3 - 5], while the dressed state of the target ion is constructed using first order perturbation theory. The triple differential cross sections ( TDCS ) are studied for this (e, 2e) process accompanied by the transfer of ālā photons with the field direction parallel to the incident momentum. The net effect of the laser field is to suppress the field free cross sections ( TDCS ). Detailed results will be presented at the Conference.
