We present angle-resolved electron momentum distributions for
above-threshold ionization (ATI) of argon in an intense, linearly
polarized laser pulse. Our results were obtained by solving the
time-dependent Schrodinger equation and by using a model based
on the strong field approximation (SFA). Many features
of the spectra such as ATI peaks, their substructure in the energy
domain and their dominant angular momentum can be understood within
the familiar SFA model.
