Show affiliationsThe infinite summations over the complete set of unperturbed atomic states appearing in the Nth-order time-dependent perturbation theory are performed using the Green's function formalism. In order to test the method extended calculations of the cross section for two- and three-photon ionization for atomic hydrogen are made and numerical comparison is shown with the values obtained by different methods. The resonant character of the process is made evident since the poles of the radial part of the Green's function represent the actual energy spectrum of the atom. The relevant transition matrix elements are written in closed form and then computed exactly without averaging over the intermediate states. The cross sections vanish for circularly polarized light near some energies which explains the form of the cross sections for circularly and linearly polarized light.
