Abstract
Drawing from the Bohmian formulation of the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, we present a self-consistent hydrodynamical method to describe electron dynamics in strong field light-matter interactions. Prototypical implementation is made for one-dimensional H atom embedded in short and intense laser pulses. The method provides very accurate electron densities and yields quantum trajectories that shed light on the electron dynamics, beyond the strong-field approximation.
