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 recoil …

We demonstrate that charged particles in a sufficiently intense standing wave are
compressed toward, and oscillate synchronously at, the antinodes of the electric field. We …

A collective, macroscopic signature to detect radiation friction in laser–plasma experiments
is proposed. In the interaction of superintense circularly polarized laser pulses with high …

Radiation reaction (RR) is the oldest still-unsolved problem in electrodynamics. In addition
to conceptual difficulties in its theoretical formulation, the requirement of exceedingly large …

Volkov states are exact solutions of the Dirac equation in the presence of an arbitrary plane
wave. Accounting for the interaction between the Dirac field and the electromagnetic field …

An accelerated charged particle emits electromagnetic radiation. If the driving force is
sufficiently strong, the radiated energy becomes comparable to the kinetic energy of the …

Spin-polarization effects of an ultrarelativistic electron beam head-on colliding with an
ultraintense two-color laser pulse are investigated comprehensively in the quantum …

Gamma-ray flash in the interaction of a tightly focused single-cycle ultra-intense laser pulse

We show that for collisions of electrons with a high-intensity laser, discrete photon emissions
introduce a transverse beam spread that is distinct from that due to classical (or beam …

Accelerated charges emit electromagnetic radiation and the consequent energy-momentum
loss alters their trajectory. This phenomenon is known as radiation reaction and the Landau …
