摘要
Availability of the semiclassical approach in strong-field physics and extreme nonlinear optics is analyzed. It is found that it is valid for calculation of the emission to the initially populated bound state only if population of this state is close to unity during the pulse and in the after pulse regime. If the initial level is depleted, the semiclassical approach fails and should be replaced by quantum-electrodynamical calculations. Also it is demonstrated that the bremsstrahlung spectrum cannot be correctly described in the frames of the semiclassical approach.
