In response to the preceding Comment, results of our research show that rate is not necessarily linearly time-dependent and it is possible to define and calculate instantaneous ionization rate. We show that a negative ionization rate and the quiver motion in strong laser field are not necessarily correlated and may occur independently. Furthermore, a negative ionization rate is not identical to recombination. Details of the instantaneous ionization rate and photoelectron kinetic energy release are calculated and analyzed for the evolution of the electron wave packet of H2+ in a 25-cycle ultrashort intense linearly polarized laser pulse of I=1.0×1014  W/cm2 intensity and lambda=1064  nm wavelength with a sin2-shaped envelope.
