辐射反应效应被认为是超高强度下激光-等离子体相互作用的关键因素，精确理解这些现象对于发现新型强场量子电动力学效应至关重要。本文研究了一种实验几何结构，可在高强度激光束碰撞中直接单次测量辐射反应能量损失。通过在单次测量中同时测量碰撞前和碰撞后电子束光谱来实现，采用电子束与碰撞高功率激光之间特定的90度散射几何结构。讨论了主要要求和设计约束，如电子束发散度和源尺寸等。推导了最终粒子能量与散射角之间相关性的解析表达式。利用经典和随机量子辐射反应模型进行数值模拟以预测实验结果并证明该方案的可行性。
英文摘要
Effects of radiation reaction are considered a key factor for lasers-plasma-interactions at ultra-high intensities, and gaining precise understanding of these phenomena will be crucical for discoveries of novel strong-field QED effects. In this paper we investigate an experimental geometry that allows a direct single-shot measurement of radiation reaction energy losses in high-intensity laser-beam collisions. This is made possible by simultaneous measurements of the pre-collision and post-collision electron beam spectra in a single shot by employing a dedicated 90-degree scattering geometry between the electron beam and the colliding high-power laser. We discuss the principal requirements and design constraints, e.g. for the electron beam divergence and source size. We derive an analytic expression for the correlation between the final particle energy and the scattering angle. Numerical simulations are performed employing both classical and stochastic quantum radiation reaction models to predict the experimental outcome and demonstrate the feasibility of the scenario.
