Abstract

The results of Monte-Carlo simulations of electron-positron-photon cascades initiated by slow electrons in circularly polarized fields of ultrahigh strength are presented and discussed. Our results confirm previous qualitative estimations [A. M. Fedotov et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 080402 (2010)] of the formation of cascades. This sort of cascade has revealed a new property of restoration of energy and dynamical quantum parameter due to acceleration of electrons and positrons by the field. This may become a dominating feature of laser-matter interactions at ultrahigh intensities. Our approach incorporates radiation friction acting on individual electrons and positrons.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
