We present a design for a pixelated scintillator based gamma-ray spectrometer for non-linear inverse Compton scattering experiments. By colliding a laser wakefield accelerated electron beam with a tightly focused, intense laser pulse, gamma-ray photo

An outstanding goal of physics is to find solutions that describe hadrons in the theory of strong interactions, Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). For this goal, the light-front Hamiltonian formulation of QCD (LFQCD) is a complementary approach to the wel

Prospects for studying vacuum polarisation using dipole and synchrotron radiation

Autor: Mattias Marklund, Antony Ilderton

Publikováno v: Journal of Plasma Physics. 82

The measurement of vacuum polarisation effects, in particular vacuum birefringence, using combined optical and x-ray laser pulses is now actively pursued. Here we briefly examine the feasibility of two alternative setups. The first utilises an altern

Nonperturbative pair production in interpolating fields

Autor: Jonatan Wårdh, Antony Ilderton, Greger Torgrimsson

Publikováno v: Physical Review D. 92

We compare the effects of timelike, lightlike and spacelike one-dimensional inhomogeneities on the probability of nonperturbative pair production in strong fields. Using interpolating coordinates we give a unifying picture in which the effect of the

Publikováno v: Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics. 92(2)

We review common extensions of particle-in-cell (PIC) schemes which account for strong field phenomena in laser-plasma interactions. After describing the physical processes of interest and their numerical implementation, we provide solutions for seve
