Complete characterization of ultra-intense laser pulses in radiation damping regime
Amol R. Holkundkar, Felix Mackenroth
We report the first closed, analytical expression for the scattering angle of an electron bunch ponderomotively scattered from a counter-propagating, ultra-intense laser pulse, als…
Impact of ion mobility on nonlinear Compton scattering of an ultra-intense laser pulse in a plasma
F. Mackenroth
We demonstrate that the nontrivial dispersion of a plasma driven by a high-intensity laser pulse qualitatively affects fundamental nonperturbative QED processes triggered by the la…
Quantum anti-quenching of radiation from laser-driven structured plasma channels
F. Mackenroth, Z. Gong, A. V. Arefiev
We demonstrate that in the interaction of a high-power laser pulse with a structured solid-density plasma-channel, clear quantum signatures of stochastic radiation emission manifes…
Ultra-intense laser pulse characterization using ponderomotive electron scattering
Felix Mackenroth, Amol R. Holkundkar, Hans-Peter Schlenvoigt
We present a new analytical solution for the equation of motion of relativistic electrons in the focus of a high-intensity laser pulse. We approximate the electron's transverse dyn…
Strong energy enhancement in a laser-driven plasma-based accelerator through stochastic friction
Z. Gong, F. Mackenroth, X. Q. Yan +1
Conventionally, friction is understood as an efficient dissipation mechanism depleting a physical system of energy as an unavoidable feature of any realistic device involving movin…
Tailored laser pulse chirp to maintain optimum radiation pressure acceleration of ions
F. Mackenroth, S. S. Bulanov
Ion beams generated with ultra-intense lasers-plasma accelerators hold promises to provide compact and affordable beams of relativistic ions. One of the most efficient acceleration…
Forward sliding-swing acceleration: electron acceleration by high-intensity lasers in strong plasma magnetic fields
Z. Gong, F. Mackenroth, T. Wang +3
A high-intensity laser beam propagating through a dense plasma drives a strong current that robustly sustains a strong quasi-static Mega Tesla-level azimuthal magnetic field. The t…
Radiative spin polarization in an ultrastrong magnetic field
Koen van Kruining, Felix Mackenroth, Jörg B. Götte
We calculate the spin flip rates for an electron in a homogeneous magnetic field for low excitations (). Our results apply for all field strengths including those beyond th…
Nonlinear trident pair production in an arbitrary plane wave: a focus on the properties of the transition amplitude
F. Mackenroth, A. Di Piazza
The process of nonlinear electron-positron pair production by an electron colliding with an arbitrary plane wave electromagnetic field (nonlinear trident pair production) is studie…
Nonlinear Compton scattering of an ultra-intense laser pulse in a plasma
F. Mackenroth, N. Kumar, N. Neitz +1
Laser pulses traveling through a plasma can feature group velocities significantly differing from the speed of light in vacuum. This modifies the well-known Volkov states of an ele…
Prospects for laser-driven ion acceleration through controlled displacement of electrons by standing waves
Joel Magnusson, Felix Mackenroth, Mattias Marklund +1
During the interaction of intense femtosecond laser pulses with various targets, the natural mechanisms of laser energy transformation inherently lack temporal control and thus com…
Determining the duration of an intense laser pulse directly in focus
Felix Mackenroth, Amol R. Holkundkar
We propose a novel measurement technique capable of determining the temporal duration of an intense laser pulse directly in its focus at full intensity. We show that the electromag…
Theoretical benchmarking of laser-accelerated ion fluxes by 2D-PIC simulations
Felix Mackenroth, Arkady Gonoskov, Mattias Marklund
There currently exists a number of different schemes for laser based ion acceleration in the literature. Some of these schemes are also partly overlapping, making a clear distincti…
Nonlinear single Compton scattering of an electron wave-packet
A. Angioi, F. Mackenroth, A. Di Piazza
Nonlinear single Compton scattering has been thoroughly investigated in the literature under the assumption that initially the electron has a definite momentum. Here, we study a mo…
Chirped standing wave acceleration of ions with intense lasers
Felix Mackenroth, Arkady Gonoskov, Mattias Marklund
We propose a novel mechanism for ion acceleration based on the guided motion of electrons from a thin target. The electron motion is locked to the moving nodes of a standing wave f…
