Enhancement of nonlinear pair production in a flying-focus pulse
Md Reshad Ur Rahman, Martin S. Formanek, Elias Gerstmayr +3
A photon can decay into an electron-positron pair in the presence of an intense laser pulse by a process known as nonlinear Breit-Wheeler pair production (NBWPP). For a sufficientl…
Enhanced quantum radiation with flying-focus laser pulses
Martin S. Formanek, John P. Palastro, Dillon Ramsey +1
The emission of a photon by an electron in an intense laser field is one of the most fundamental processes in electrodynamics and underlies the many applications that utilize high-…
Radiation by a laser-driven flying-focus electron wave packet
Antonino Di Piazza, Martin Formanek, Dillon Ramsey +1
An exact solution of the Dirac equation in the presence of an arbitrary electromagnetic plane wave is found, which corresponds to a focused electron wave packet, with the focus of…
Signatures of vacuum birefringence in low-power flying focus pulses
Martin Formanek, John P. Palastro, Dillon Ramsey +2
Vacuum birefringence produces a differential phase between orthogonally polarized components of a weak electromagnetic probe in the presence of a strong electromagnetic field. Desp…
Radiation Reaction Enhancement in Flying Focus Pulses
Martin Formanek, Dillon Ramsey, John P. Palastro +1
Radiation reaction (RR) is the oldest still-unsolved problem in electrodynamics. In addition to conceptual difficulties in its theoretical formulation, the requirement of exceeding…
