Optimized multibeam configuration for observation of QED cascades

E. G. Gelfer, A. A. Mironov, A. M. Fedotov +4

QED cascades in intense electromagnetic field can occur if the dynamical quantum parameter of a seed electron, which in Compton units coincides with the electron proper acceler…

Radiation friction vs ponderomotive effect

A. M. Fedotov, N. V. Elkina, E. G. Gelfer +2

The concept of ponderomotive potential is upgraded to a regime in which radiation friction becomes dominant. The radiation friction manifests itself in novel features of long-term…

Collapse and revival of electromagnetic cascades in focused intense laser pulses

A. A. Mironov, N. B. Narozhny, A. M. Fedotov

We consider interaction of a high-energy electron beam with two counterpropagating femtosecond laser pulses. Nonlinear Compton scattering and electron-positron pair production by t…

Creation of electron-positron plasma with superstrong laser field

N. B. Narozhny, A. M. Fedotov

We present a short review of recent progress in studying QED effects of interaction of ultra-relativistic laser pulses with vacuum and plasma. The development of laser tec…

Effect of laser polarization on QED cascading

V. F. Bashmakov, E. N. Nerush, I. Yu. Kostyukov +2

Development of QED cascades in a standing electromagnetic wave for circular and linear polarizations is simulated numerically with a 3D PIC-MC code. It is demonstrated that for the…

On the design of experiments to study extreme field limits

S. S. Bulanov, M. Chen, C. B. Schroeder +13

We propose experiments on the collision of high intensity electromagnetic pulses with electron bunches and on the collision of multiple electromagnetic pulses for studying extreme…
