Experimental evidence of production of directional muons from a laser-wakefield accelerator
L. Calvin, E. Gerstmayr, C. Arran +19
We report on experimental evidence of the generation of directional muons from a laser-wakefield accelerator driven by a PW-class laser. The muons were generated following the inte…
Observation of quantum effects on radiation reaction in strong fields
Eva E. Los, Elias Gerstmayr, Christopher Arran +28
Radiation reaction, the force experienced by an accelerated charge due to radiation emission, has long been the subject of extensive theoretical and experimental research. Experime…
Neural network-based deconvolution for GeV-Scale Gamma-Ray Spectroscopy
Zhuofan Zhang, Mingxuan Wei, Kyle Fleck +4
High-energy gamma-ray spectroscopy is crucial for studying and advancing the application of high-energy photons in areas like strong-field physics, high-energy-density science, and…
Input to the European Strategy for Particle Physics: Strong-Field Quantum Electrodynamics
G. Sarri, B. King, T. Blackburn +21
This document sets out the intention of the strong-field QED community to carry out, both experimentally and numerically, high-statistics parametric studies of quantum electrodynam…
