Non-resonant driving of H atom with broken time-reversal symmetry

The dynamics of atomic hydrogen placed in a static electric field and illuminated by elliptically polarized microwaves is studied in the range of small field amplitudes where perturbation calculations are applicable. For a general configuration of the fields any generalized time-reversal symmetry is broken and, as the classical dynamics is chaotic, the level statistics obeys the random matrices prediction of Gaussian unitary ensemble.
