Testing strong-field QED with the avalanche precursor
A. A. Mironov, S. S. Bulanov, A. Di Piazza +8
A two-beam high-power laser facility is essential for the study of one of the most captivating phenomena predicted by strong-field quantum electrodynamics (QED) and yet unobserved…
Strong-field ionization in particle-in-cell simulations
A. A. Mironov, E. G. Gelfer, I. I. Tupitsyn +11
The inclusion of the process of multiple ionization of atoms in high-intensity electromagnetic fields into particle-in-cell (PIC) codes applied to the simulation of laser-plasma in…
Creating pair plasmas with observable collective effects
Kenan Qu, Sebastian Meuren, Nathaniel J. Fisch
Although existing technology cannot yet directly produce fields at the Schwinger level, experimental facilities can already explore strong-field QED phenomena by taking advantage o…
MP3 White Paper 2021 -- Research Opportunities Enabled by Co-locating Multi-Petawatt Lasers with Dense Ultra-Relativistic Electron Beams
Sebastian Meuren, David A. Reis, Roger Blandford +11
Novel emergent phenomena are expected to occur under conditions exceeding the QED critical electric field, where the vacuum becomes unstable to electron-positron pair production. T…
On Seminal HEDP Research Opportunities Enabled by Colocating Multi-Petawatt Laser with High-Density Electron Beams
Sebastian Meuren, Phil H. Bucksbaum, Nathaniel J. Fisch +7
The scientific community is currently witnessing an expensive and worldwide race to achieve the highest possible light intensity. Within the next decade this effort is expected to…
Are we ready to transfer optical light to gamma-rays?
Marija Vranic, Thomas Grismayer, Sebastian Meuren +2
Scattering relativistic electrons with optical lasers can result in a significant frequency upshift for the photons, potentially producing -rays. This is what linear Compton sca…
