Popis:	In the present paper we study the influence of the Coulomb potential on the real and imaginary parts of the plasma-induced susceptibility in a photoionized gas. We show that the real part of the susceptibility is more than one order of magnitude larger due to the action of a Coulomb potential. Surprisingly, the long-range Coulomb potential of the atomic core leads to an additional contribution to the imaginary part of the susceptibility which has no counterpart in the case of a short-range potential. We demonstrate that the origin of this behavior are electrons in states very close to the continuum (nearly-free electrons), and analyze the dependence of the susceptibility on the intensity and wavelengths. Comment: 6 pages, 7 figures
