Observation of relativistic mass shift effects during high-intensity laser-electron interactions
The transition to multiphoton electron scattering in a high-intensity laser focus occurs when the oscillatory energy of a free electron in the laser field approaches the electron rest energy. Under these conditions the electron recoil due to the laser-field momentum can no longer be ignored, and free electrons acquire momentum in the direction of the wave vector of the laser. This momentum was ...
متن کاملHigh-harmonic generation in plasmas from relativistic laser-electron scattering
Results are presented on the generation of high harmonics through the scattering of relativistic electrons from high-intensity laser light. The characteristic signatures of this process are found to be the emission of evenorder harmonics, linear dependence on the electron density, significant amount of harmonics with circular polarization, and small spatial extent of the source. The harmonics a...
متن کاملRelativistic Motion in a Constant Electromagnetic Field
For a relativistic charged particle moving in a constant electromagnetic field, its velocity 4-vector has been well studied. However, despite the fact that both the electromagnetic field and the equations of motion are purely real, the resulting 4-velocity is seemingly due to a complex electromagnetic field. This work shows that this is not due to some complex formalism used (such as Clifford a...
متن کاملRelativistic signatures in laser-assisted scattering at high field intensities.
The complete Dirac-Volkov relativistic treatment of the first Born limit of laser-assisted potential scattering of electrons within a circularly polarized laser field has been compared to the nonrelativistic Bunkin-Fedorov approach. The dependence of the quiver energy on the electron four-momentum in an ultrastrong laser field leads to different energy transfer cross sections depending on the s...
متن کاملA resolution criterion for electron tomography based on cross-validation.
Despite much progress in electron tomography, quantitative assessment of resolution has remained a problematic issue. The criteria that are used in single particle analysis, based on gauging the consistency between density maps calculated from half data sets, are not directly applicable because of the uniqueness of a tomographic volume. Here, we propose two criteria based on a cross-validation ...
