Toward the observation of interference effects in nonlinear Compton scattering

Abstract
The photon spectrum from electrons scattering on multiple laser pulses exhibits interference effects not present for scattering on a single pulse. We investigate the conditions required for the experimental observation of these interference effects in electron-laser collisions, in particular analysing the roles of the detector resolution and the transverse divergence of the pump electron beam.
