“…Here, E s = mc 2 /eλ c is the Schwinger field [22] with λ c = /mc the reduced Compton length. For χ e 0.5 the stochastic nature of photon emission becomes important, meaning that a radiating electron emits fewer photons per emission, compared to the classical radiation dominated regime [17,23,24]. For χ e ∼ 1, the quantum nature of the radiation, with emitted photons having energy comparable to the electron energy, leads to discontinuous particle trajectories with significant recoils and non-negligible electron-positron pair creation [25][26][27][28][29].…”
