In Situ Characterization of Ultraintense Laser Pulses
C. N. Harvey
We present a method for determining the characteristics of an intense laser pulse by probing it with a relativistic electron beam. After an initial burst of very high-energy -ra…
Experimental evidence of radiation reaction in the collision of a high-intensity laser pulse with a laser-wakefield accelerated electron beam
J. M. Cole, K. T. Behm, T. G. Blackburn +21
The dynamics of energetic particles in strong electromagnetic fields can be heavily influenced by the energy loss arising from the emission of radiation during acceleration, known…
Focussing effects in laser-electron Thomson scattering
C. Harvey, M. Marklund, A. R. Holkundkar
We study the effects of laser pulse focussing on the spectral properties of Thomson scattered radiation. Modelling the laser as a paraxial beam we find that, in all but the most ex…
Quantum quenching of radiation losses in short laser pulses
Chris Harvey, Arkady Gonoskov, Anton Ilderton +1
Accelerated charges radiate, and therefore must lose energy. The impact of this energy loss on particle motion, called radiation reaction, becomes significant in intense-laser matt…
Quantum radiation reaction: from interference to incoherence
Victor Dinu, Chris Harvey, Anton Ilderton +2
We investigate quantum radiation reaction in laser-electron interactions across different energy and intensity regimes. Using a fully quantum approach which also accounts exactly f…
Propagation of Ultra-Intense Laser Pulses in Near-critical Plasmas: Depletion Mechanisms and Effects of Radiation Reaction
Erik Wallin, Arkady Gonoskov, Christopher Harvey +2
Although, for current laser pulse energies, the weakly nonlinear regime of LWFA is known to be the optimal for reaching the highest possible electron energies, the capabilities of…
