Superintense fields from multiple ultrashort laser pulses retroreflected in circular geometry

Laser field with superintensity beyond 10(29) W/cm(2) can be generated by coherent superposition of multiple 100 fs laser pulses in circular geometry setup upon retroreflection by a ring mirror. We have found the criteria for attaining such intensities using broadband ring mirror within the practica...
