From local to nonlocal: higher fidelity simulations of photon emission in intense laser pulses

T. G. Blackburn, A. J. MacLeod, B. King

State-of-the-art numerical simulations of quantum electrodynamical (QED) processes in strong laser fields rely on a semiclassical combination of classical equations of motion and Q…

Optimized computation of tight focusing of short pulses using mapping to periodic space

Elena Panova, Valentin Volokitin, Evgeny Efimenko +9

When a pulsed, few-cycle electromagnetic wave is focused by optics with f-number smaller than two, the frequency components it contains are focused to different regions of space, b…

Model-independent inference of laser intensity

T. G. Blackburn, E. Gerstmayr, S. P. D. Mangles +1

An ultrarelativistic electron beam passing through an intense laser pulse emits radiation around its direction of propagation into a characteristic angular profile. Here we show th…

Radiation reaction in electron-beam interactions with high-intensity lasers

T. G. Blackburn

Charged particles accelerated by electromagnetic fields emit radiation, which must, by the conservation of momentum, exert a recoil on the emitting particle. The force of this reco…

Radiation beaming in the quantum regime

T. G. Blackburn, D. Seipt, S. S. Bulanov +1

Classical theories of radiation reaction predict that the electron motion is confined to the plane defined by the electron's instantaneous momentum and the force exerted by the ext…

Optimal Parameters for Radiation Reaction Experiments

Christopher Arran, Jason M. Cole, Elias Gerstmayr +3

As new laser facilities are developed with intensities on the scale of 10^22 - 10^24 W cm^-2 , it becomes ever more important to understand the effect of strong field quantum elect…
