The European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures (ESFRI) has selected in 2006 a proposal based on ultra-intense laser fields with intensities reaching up to 10-10 W cm called 'ELI' for Extreme Light Infrastructure. The construction of a large-scale laser-centred, distributed pan-European research infrastructure, involving beyond the state-of-the-art ultra-short and ultra-intense laser technologies, received the approval for funding in 2011-2012. The three pillars of the ELI facility are being built in Czech Republic, Hungary and Romania. The Romanian pillar is ELI-Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP). The new facility is intended to serve a broad national, European and International science community. Its mission covers scientific research at the frontier of knowledge involving two domains. The first one is laser-driven experiments related to nuclear physics, strong-field quantum electrodynamics and associated vacuum effects. The second is based on a Compton backscattering high-brilliance and intense low-energy gamma beam (<20 MeV), a marriage of laser and accelerator technology which will allow us to investigate nuclear structure and reactions as well as nuclear astrophysics with unprecedented resolution and accuracy. In addition to fundamental themes, a large number of applications with significant societal impact are being developed. The ELI-NP research centre will be located in Măgurele near Bucharest, Romania. The project is implemented by 'Horia Hulubei' National Institute for Physics and Nuclear Engineering (IFIN-HH). The project started in January 2013 and the new facility will be fully operational by the end of 2019. After a short introduction to multi-PW lasers and multi-MeV brilliant gamma beam scientific and technical description of the future ELI-NP facility as well as the present status of its implementation of ELI-NP, will be presented. The science and examples of societal applications at reach with these electromagnetic probes with much improved performances provided at this new facility will be discussed with a special focus on day-one experiments and associated novel instrumentation.
The intensity of the ultra-short pulse lasers has reached 1022 W/cm2 owing to the advancements of laser technology. When the motion of an electron becomes relativistic, bremsstrahlung accompanies it. The energy from this bremsstrahlung corresponds to the energy loss of the electron; therefore, the motion of the electron deviates from the case without radiation. The radiation behaves something like resistance. This effect called “radiation reaction” or “radiation damping” and the force converted from the radiation is named the “radiation reaction force” or the “damping force”. The equation of motion with the reaction force is known as the Lorentz-Abraham-Dirac (LAD) equation, but the solution of this equation is not physical due to the fact that it has a “run-away” solution. As one solution of this problem, we have derived a new equation which takes the place of the Lorentz-Abraham-Dirac equation. We will show the validity of this equation with a simple theoretical analysis.
In the near future, the intensity of the ultra-short pulse laser will reach to 10 22 W/cm 2 owe to the advancements of the laser technologies. The motion of the electron becomes relativism. If the electron is laid in such strong field, the effect of the "radiation reaction" is not negligible for electron motion. In general, if this motion is describe as the Lorentz-Abraham-Dirac equation, there is a "run-away" solution. A lot of researchers have tried to transform this equation for avoiding runaway. As one solution of this problem, we succeeded in the discovery of a new equation that takes the place of the Lorentz-Abraham-Dirac equation. I'll show the validity of this equation by using the simulation in this paper.
Radiation reaction against a relativistic electron is of critical importance since the experiment to check this "quantumness" becomes possible soon with an extremely highintensity laser beam. However, there is a fundamental mathematical quest to apply any laser profiles to laser focusing and superposition beyond the Furry picture of its usual method by a plane wave. To give the apparent meaning of q(χ) the quantumness factor with respect to a radiation process is absent. Thus for resolving the above questions, we propose stochastic quantization of the classical radiation reaction model for any laser field profiles, via the construction of the relativistic Brownian kinematics with the dynamics of a scalar electron and the Maxwell equation with a current by a Brownian quanta. This is the first proposal of the coupling system between a relativistic Brownian quanta and fields in Nelson's stochastic quantization. Therefore, we can derive the radiation field by its Maxwell equation, too. This provides us the fact that q(χ) produced by QED is regarded as P(Ω ave τ ) of an existence probability such that a scalar electron stay on its average trajectory. * keita.seto@eli-np.ro
