Abstract

The ionization probability of an atomic s state under the action of static electric and magnetic fields is calculated taking into account the Coulomb interaction between the escaping electron and the atomic core. The structure of the perturbation series for the energy of the level is investigated and the asymptotic behavior of the higher orders of the perturbation theory is found.
