In the recent work of Herath et al. [T. Herath, L. Yan, S. K. Lee, and W. Li, Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 043004 (2012)PRLTAO0031-900710.1103/PhysRevLett.109.043004] the first experimental observation of a dependence of strong-field ionization rate on the sign of the magnetic quantum number m [of the initial bound state (n,l,m)] was reported. The experiment with nearly circularly polarized light could not distinguish which sign of m favors faster ionization. We perform ab initio calculations for the…
