Multiphoton ionization rates for the Hydrogen atom are calculated by direct solution of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation for several intensities at a photon energy of 5.0 eV (KrF laser). Ionization rates for linear polarized light are extracted front the time evolution of the ground state on a 2d cylindrical coordinate lattice, while rates for circular polarized light are extracted from calculations on a 3d Cartesian coordinate lattice. Multiphoton ionization rates for the Lithium atom are calculated in the frozen-core TDHF approximation for a variety of intensities and photon frequencies. The time-dependent equation for the valence HF orbital is solved on a 2d cylindrical coordinate lattice using both fixed and variable grid spacings. The non-perturbative results for both atoms are in sharp contrast to perturbation theory predictions.
