The direct ionization of the helium atom by intense coherent high-frequency laser pulses is investigated theoretically from first principles. To this end, we solve numerically the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for the two-electron wave-packets by the efficient time-dependent restricted-active-space configuration-interaction method (TD-RASCI, [1]). Thereby we investigate how the dynamic interference of the photoelectrons of the same kinetic energy emitted at different times along the pulse [2] is modified for systems with several electrons. In particular, we consider photon energies which are nearly resonant for the subsequent 1s–2p excitation in the He+. In order to enable observations of the dynamic interference patterns in the computed photoionization spectrum, the two-electron wave-packets were propagated on large spatial grids over long times.
