We investigate a possibility of enhancement of an atomic electron capture rate by irradiating laser beam to "an atom". The possibility of the enhancement is shown as a consequence of an enhanced electron wave function at origin Psi(0) through an effectively increased mass of the electron. We find that order of magnitude enhancement can be achieved using the laser with intensity 10(10) W/mm(2), and energy of photon, of O (10(-3)) eV., Electronic version of an article published as International Journal of Modern Physics E, Vol: 16, Issue: 5(June 2007), 2007, P1349-P1360,DOI:10.1142/S021830130700671X (c)copyright World Scientific Publishing Company http://www.worldscinet.com/cgi-bin/details.cgi?id=pii:S0218301307006708&type=html, text, application/pdf}, pages = {1349--1360}, title = {Laser irradiated enhancement of the atomic electron capture rate in search of new physics}, volume = {16}, year = {2007}, yomi = {ノムラ, タカアキ and サトウ, ジョウ} }
