Synchrotron radiation from ultrahigh-intensity laser-plasma interactions and competition with Bremsstrahlung in thin foil targets
The emission of high-energy photons is one of the major effects of relativistic laser-plasma interactions, which underpins a wide range of applications, from plasma diagnostics to radiography to nuclear physics and quantum electrodynamics studies. In the case of solid targets, such emission is usual...
