الوصف: A general method for solving numerically the time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation, that is based on the Suzuki-Trotter scheme with the split-step Fourier approach, is introduced. The method relies on a Hamiltonian decomposition, where except of the components depending exclusively on the momentum or on the position operators, there are also terms depending on both momentum and position operators in particular configurations. We demonstrate that, for as long as the latter does not depend on noncommuting coordinates of the momentum and position operators, nondipole effects in laser-matter interactions can be studied without applying extra unitary operations. Specifically, we analyze the effect of nondipole corrections in ionization of a two-dimensional hydrogen atom for low- and high-frequency pulses. In the former case, the electron wave packet dynamics is dominated by rescattering processes within the laser pulse, leading to the high-order harmonic generation. We illustrate that harmonics of even orders are generated in the direction of the laser field polarization. On the contrary, for high-frequency pulses, such rescattering processes can be neglected. We demonstrate that a significant portion of the low-energy photoelectrons is detected opposite to the laser pulse propagation direction as a consequence of their post-pulse wave packet spreading and interaction with the parent ion.
