Resonant Excitation of Surface Plasmon for Wakefield Acceleration by Beating GW Lasers on Smooth Cylindrical Surface

Bifeng Lei, Hao Zhang, Alexandre Bonatto +5

We present a theoretical and numerical study of resonant surface-plasmon (SP) excitation driven by the beating of two co-propagating laser pulses on a smooth cylindrical plasma-vac…

Coherent synchrotron radiation by excitation of surface plasmon polariton on near-critical solid microtube surface

Bifeng Lei, Hao Zhang, Daniel Seipt +5

Coherent synchrotron radiation (CSR) is crucial for the development of powerful ultrashort light sources. We present a mechanism for generating CSR in the form of generalised super…

Novel Signatures of Radiation Reaction in Electron-Laser Sidescattering

Philipp Sikorski, Alec G. R. Thomas, Stepan S. Bulanov +2

In this article we investigate novel signatures of radiation reaction via the angular deflection of an electron beam colliding at 90 degrees with an intense laser pulse. Due to the…

Optical Probing of Ultrafast Laser-Induced Solid-to-Overdense-Plasma Transitions

Yasmina Azamoum, Georg Alexander Becker, Sebastian Keppler +11

Understanding the target dynamics during its interaction with a relativistic ultrashort laser pulse is a challenging fundamental multi-physics problem involving at least atomic and…

Kinetic theory for spin-polarized relativistic plasmas

Daniel Seipt, Alec G. R. Thomas

The investigation of spin and polarization effects in ultra-high intensity laser-plasma and laser-beam interactions has become an emergent topic in high-field science recently. In…

A laser-plasma platform for photon-photon physics

B. Kettle, D. Hollatz, E. Gerstmayr +35

We describe a laser-plasma platform for photon-photon collision experiments to measure fundamental quantum electrodynamic processes such as the linear Breit-Wheeler process with re…
