Plasma screening in mid-charged ions observed by K-shell line emission
M. Šmıd, O. Humphries, C. Baehtz +24
Dense plasma environment affects the electronic structure of ions via variations of the microscopic electrical fields, also known as plasma screening. This effect can be either est…

The Darkfield Approach to Measuring Vacuum Birefringence and Light-by-Light Couplings -- A Proof-of-Principle Experiment
Michal SmÃd, Pooyan Khademi, Carsten Bähtz +29
Vacuum fluctuations give rise to effective nonlinear interactions between electromagnetic fields. These generically modify the characteristics of light traversing a strong-field re…

Shake-off in XFEL heated solid density plasma
G. O. Williams, L. Ansia, M. Makita +25
In atoms undergoing ionisation, an abrupt re-arrangement of free and bound electrons can lead to the ejection of another bound electron (shake-off). The spectroscopic signatures of…
