Production of intense isolated attosecond pulses with circular polarization by using counter-propagating relativistic lasers

We demonstrate theoretically and numerically that intense isolated circularly polarized (CP) attosecond pulses can be generated from ultrathin foil targets irradiated by two relativistic lasers from opposite sides, where their polarizations are orthogonal to each other. With a proper matching condit...
