Aspects of electromagnetic radiation reaction in strong fields
arXiv:1409.7707 · doi:10.1080/00107514.2014.886840
Abstract
With the recent advances in laser technology, experimental investigation of radiation reaction phenomena is at last becoming a realistic prospect. A pedagogical introduction to electromagnetic radiation reaction is given with the emphasis on matter driven by ultra-intense lasers. Single-particle, multi-particle, classical and quantum aspects are all addressed.
