Numerical optimization of quantum vacuum signals
arXiv:2405.03317 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.110.076009
Abstract
The identification of prospective scenarios for observing quantum vacuum signals in high-intensity laser experiments requires both accurate theoretical predictions and the exploration of high-dimensional parameter spaces. Numerical simulations address the first requirement, while optimization provides an efficient solution for the second one. In the present work, we demonstrate the potential of Bayesian optimization in maximizing photonic quantum vacuum signals on the example of two-beam collisions. This allows us to find the optimal waist sizes for beams with elliptic cross sections, and to identify the specific physical process leading to a discernible signal in a coherent harmonic focusing configuration scenario.
