Light-Matter Interaction Near the Schwinger Limit Using Tightly Focused Doppler-Boosted Lasers

Neïl Zaïm, Antonin Sainte-Marie, Luca Fedeli +4

The Schwinger limit could be approached by focusing to its diffraction limit the light reflected by a plasma mirror irradiated by a multi-petawatt laser. We explore numerically the…

Simultaneous generation and detection of energetic particle and radiation beams from relativistic plasma mirrors driven at kHz repetition rate

Jaismeen Kaur, Marie Ouillé, Dan Levy +8

We report on the first simultaneous measurement of high-order harmonics, relativistic electrons and low divergence proton beams generated from plasma mirrors driven at kHz repetiti…

Quantum vacuum processes in the extremely intense light of relativistic plasma mirror sources

Antonin Sainte-Marie, Luca Fedeli, Neïl Zaïm +2

The advent of Petawatt-class laser systems allows generating electro-magnetic fields of unprecedented strength in a controlled environment, driving increasingly more efforts to pro…

PICSAR-QED: a Monte Carlo module to simulate Strong-Field Quantum Electrodynamics in Particle-In-Cell codes for exascale architectures

Luca Fedeli, Neïl Zaïm, Antonin Sainte-Marie +5

Physical scenarios where the electromagnetic fields are so strong that Quantum ElectroDynamics (QED) plays a substantial role are one of the frontiers of contemporary plasma physic…

A Hybrid Nodal-Staggered Pseudo-Spectral Electromagnetic Particle-In-Cell Method with Finite-Order Centering

Edoardo Zoni, Remi Lehe, Olga Shapoval +5

Electromagnetic particle-in-cell (PIC) codes are widely used to perform computer simulations of a variety of physical systems, including fusion plasmas, astrophysical plasmas, plas…

Laser wakefield acceleration driven by few-cycle laser pulses in overdense plasmas

N. Zaïm, F. Böhle, M. Bocoum +6

We measure the emission of energetic electrons from the interaction between ultrashort laser pulses and a solid density plasma in the relativistic regime. We detect an electron bea…
