Photon polarization tensor in circularly polarized Hermite- and Laguerre-Gaussian beams

Felix Karbstein, Elena A. Mosman

We derive analytical expressions for the photon polarization tensor in circularly polarized Hermite- and Laguerre-Gaussian beams, complementing the corresponding results for linear…

Sauter-Schwinger pair creation dynamically assisted by a plane wave

Greger Torgrimsson, Christian Schneider, Ralf Schützhold

We study electron-positron pair creation by a strong and constant electric field superimposed with a weaker transversal plane wave which is incident perpendicularly (or under some…

Debris Disc Constraints on Planetesimal Formation

Alexander V. Krivov, Aljoscha Ide, Torsten Löhne +2

Two basic routes for planetesimal formation have been proposed over the last few decades. One is a classical "slow-growth" scenario. Another one is particle concentration models, i…

Progress on Experiments towards LWFA-driven Transverse Gradient Undulator-Based FELs

Axel Bernhard, Veronica Afonso Rodriguez, Stephan Kuschel +9

Free Electron Lasers (FEL) are commonly regarded as the potential key application of laser wakefield accelerators (LWFA). It has been found that electron bunches exiting from state…

Low energy properties of SU(2) gauge theory with N_f = 3/2 flavours of adjoint fermions

Georg Bergner, Pietro Giudice, Istvan Montvay +3

In this work we present the results of a numerical investigation of SU(2) gauge theory with N_f = 3/2 flavours of fermions, corresponding to 3 Majorana fermions, which transform in…
