Radiation back-reaction in relativistically strong and QED-strong laser fields
Abstract
The emission from an electron in the field of a relativistically strong laser pulse is analyzed. At the pulse intensities of 1022 W/cm2 the emission from counter-propagating electrons is modified by the effects of Quantum ElectroDynamics (QED), as long as the electron energy is sufficiently high: E 1 GeV. The radiation force experienced by an electron is for the first time derived from the QED principles and its applicability range is extended towards the QED-strong fields.
