Reaching supercritical field strengths with intense lasers
Published 2019-01-01“…We show that a collision between an electron beam with energy in the tens of GeV and a laser pulse of intensity ${10}^{24}\,{\rm{W}}\,{\mathrm{cm}}^{-2}$ at oblique, or even normal, incidence is a viable platform for studying the breakdown of perturbative strong-field QED. Our results have implications for the design of near-term experiments as they predict that certain quantum effects are enhanced at oblique incidence.…”

Parameter Optimization Design of the Commutation Circuit of a Hybrid DC-Current-Limiting Circuit Breaker
Published 2023-11-01“…In order to further optimize the parameters of the commutation circuit, a mathematical model for optimization design was established. Taking the maximum critical breakdown voltage under unit capacitance energy as the objective function, the arcing time before commutating and the current-limiting inductance and capacitance are enumerated to obtain the optimized commutation circuit parameters. …”
