Theoretical study of ultrarelativistic laser-electron interaction with radiation reaction
When the laser intensity becomes higher than 1022 W/cm2, the motion of an electron becomes relativistic, and emits large amounts of radiation. This radiation energy loss transferred to the kinetic energy loss of the electron, is treated as an external force, the “radiation reaction force”. We show...
