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…
Reaching supercritical field strengths with intense lasers
T. G. Blackburn, A. Ilderton, M. Marklund +1
It is conjectured that all perturbative approaches to quantum electrodynamics (QED) break down in the collision of a high-energy electron beam with an intense laser, when the laser…
Realising Single-Shot Measurements of Quantum Radiation Reaction in High-Intensity Lasers
C. D. Baird, C. D. Murphy, T. G. Blackburn +4
Collisions between high intensity laser pulses and energetic electron beams are now used to measure the transition between the classical and quantum regimes of light-matter interac…
