The study of electron dynamics in relativistic laser fields is a subject of major interest within the strong field physics community and has inspired several key applications aimed at accelerating charged particles. The authors present a theoretical study, and propose an experimental design, that address the interaction of electrons with intense lasers in the transition regime from classical to quantum and show that stochastic processes in the quantum regime allow electrons to be transmitted/reflected across/by the laser in the parameter region prohibited by classical dynamics.
