The dynamics of charged particles in electromagnetic fields is an essential component of
understanding the most extreme environments in our Universe. In electromagnetic fields of …

High-intensity lasers are critical for the exploration of strong field quantum electrodynamics.
We report here a demonstration of laser intensity exceeding 1 0 23 W/cm 2 with the CoReLS …

Laser-plasma physics has developed rapidly over the past few decades as lasers have
become both more powerful and more widely available. Early experimental and numerical …

Insights from spectroscopic experiments led to the development of quantum mechanics as
the common theoretical framework for describing the physical and chemical properties of …

The field of laser-matter interaction traditionally deals with the response of atoms, molecules,
and plasmas to an external light wave. However, the recent sustained technological …

We report on the laser pulse output of 339 J centered at 800 nm from a chirped-pulse
amplification (CPA) Ti: sapphire laser system at the Shanghai Superintense Ultrafast Laser …

The current understanding of some important nonlinear collective processes in quantum
plasmas with degenerate electrons is presented. After reviewing the basic properties of …

The nonlinear propagation of coherent optical fields has been extensively explored in the
framework of nonlinear optics, while the linear propagation of incoherent fields has been …

Dense quantum plasmas are ubiquitous in planetary interiors and in compact astrophysical
objects (eg, the interior of white dwarf stars, in magnetars, etc.), in semiconductors and …
