The ultimate aim of contemporary ultrashort, ultra strong laser physics is to capture movies of electrons during chemical reactions. Apart from obvious technical difficulties, there has always been a fundamental obstacle to the interpretations of these scans: The motion of an electron in combined laser and electrostatic fields is an unsolved problem. We use a canonical change of coordinates in order to describe the electron motion in terms of its guiding-center. We describe a hierarchy of reduced models for the guiding-center motion based on time averaging of the electron dynamics. We use these reduced models to understand, interpret and assess the electron dynamics and to unravel mechanisms behind nonlinear phenomena observed in experiments.
