Strong interplay between superluminosity and radiation friction during direct laser acceleration
Using a test-particle model, we examine direct laser acceleration of electrons within a magnetic filament that has been shown to form inside a laser-irradiated plasma. We focus on ultra-high intensity interactions where the force of radiation friction caused by electron emission of electromagnetic r...
