Low-energy structures (LES) in the photoelectron momentum distribution, typically observed in linearly polarized tunneling ionization, are caused by Coulomb effects. The authors demonstrate that the LES induced by specific recollisions persists at any laser ellipticity, provided the nonadiabatic regime is reached with sufficiently large nonadiabaticity.
