Numerical Modeling of Radiation-Dominated and QED-Strong Regimes of Laser-Plasma Interaction
Igor V. Sokolov, Natalia M. Naumova, John A. Nees
Ultra-strong laser pulses can be so intense that an electron in the focused beam loses significant energy due to gamma-photon emission while its motion deviates via the radiation b…
Pair Creation in QED-Strong Pulsed Laser Fields Interacting with Electron Beams
Igor V. Sokolov, Natalia M. Naumova, John A. Nees +1
QED-effects are known to occur in a strong laser pulse interaction with a counter-propagating electron beam, among these effects being electron-positron pair creation. We discuss t…
Emission and its back-reaction accompanying electron motion in relativistically strong and QED-strong pulsed laser fields
Igor V. Sokolov, John A. Nees, Victor P. Yanovsky +2
The emission from an electron in the field of a relativistically strong laser pulse is analyzed. At pulse intensities of J > 2 10^22 W/cm2 the emission from counter-propagating ele…
Radiation back-reaction in relativistically strong and QED-strong laser fields
Igor V. Sokolov, John A. Nees, Victor P. Yanovsky +2
The emission from an electron in the field of a relativistically strong laser pulse is analyzed. At the pulse intensities of \ge 10^{22} W/cm^2 the emission from counter-propagatin…
Hole boring in a DT pellet and fast ion ignition with ultra-intense laser pulses
N. Naumova, T. Schlegel, V. T. Tikhonchuk +3
Recently achieved high intensities of short laser pulses open new prospects in their application to hole boring in inhomogeneous overdense plasmas and for ignition in precompressed…
Relativistic Whistle: High Order Harmonics Induced by the Ultra-Intense Laser Pulse Propagating inside the Fiber
S. V. Bulanov, T. Zh. Esirkepov, N. M. Naumova +1
A propagation of an ultra-intense short laser pulse in a fiber is investigated with two dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulations. The fiber is a narrow hollow channel with walls co…
