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…
