QED effects exploration based on ultra-intensity lasers

Abstract

With the development of the laser technology, the interaction between laser and matter is expected to enter the field of strong field QED, which has become as one of the hottest research directions. In this paper, we present the development of laser technology and the realization of ultra-intense ultra-short laser. Specifically, we demonstrate the progress of laser strong field QED and the laser-plasma interaction. Especially, the frontier progress of Laser-plasma QED, as well as its results of numerical simulation and the related QED process are demonstrated. Additionally, some relevant interesting strong field QED effects are also discussed. Besides, the frontier development of vacuum-related QED effects is evaluated, e.g., the vacuum birefringence. These results have important practical significance for some applications related to precision measurement, for example the optical clock. Moreover, they shed light on testing the basic theory of QED from a higher precision and guiding for new generation of laser development.
