Abstract
Recent studies of resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization (MPI) and third-harmonic generation (THG) in the rare gases Xe, Kr, and Ar, will be discussed. In particular, the disappearance with increasing pressure of the MPI signals resonant with the three-photon allowed 6s, 5s, and 4s states, respectively, of the rare gases is correlated with the appearance of THG. At certain laser wavelengths the THG signal is partially quenched by self absorption.
