Hysteresis phenomenon in single electron nonlinear Thomson scattering in tightly focused linearly polarized lasers caused by collision position changes

“…x-rays and γ-rays in addition to high-order harmonic radiation that is collimated and monochromatic [10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Exploring and in-depth studying the radiation characteristics generated by laser high-energy electron collisions can provide valuable practical significance for the modulation and analysis of radiation.…”

Nonlinear propagation of an intense Laguerre–Gaussian laser pulse in a plasma channel*

“…[10] Such high energy electron bunches provide a potential approach to produce high brightness x-ray and even γ-ray radiation sources. [11][12][13] Laser wake-field acceleration (LWFA) is the main acceleration mechanism for the generation of such energetic electron bunch and then wake field effects play a cru-cial role in electron acceleration like as the plasma channel.…”

Acceleration and radiation of externally injected electrons in laser plasma wakefield driven by a Laguerre–Gaussian pulse

“…[8][9][10] Radiations with photon energies from tens of eV to several MeV are generated from LWFA accelerated electrons interacting with external magnet or optical undulators. [11][12][13][14][15][16] Besides these external undulators induced radiations, the accelerated electrons in wakefields also experience transverse oscillations due to the transverse focusing fields, which leads to betatron radiation. These radiation sources are achieved with relatively simple and compact setup and are suitable for wide applications.…”
