  • Radiation reaction (RR) on particles in strong fields is the subject of intense experimental research, but previous efforts lacked statistical significance due to the extreme regimes required. Here, the authors report a 5σ observation of RR and obtain strong, quantitative evidence favouring quantum models over classical, using an all-optical setup where electrons are accelerated by a laser in a gas jet before colliding with a second, intense pulse.

  • Attosecond pulses of coherent extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light are essential tools for probing the ultrafast dynamics of atoms and molecules. The authors demonstrate how trains of coherent XUV attosecond pulses can be generated over unprecedentedly short lengths by using a relativistic electron-positron beam colliding with a laser pulse.

  • The generation of gamma-ray flashes by dense ultra-relativistic electron beams travelling across a millimetre-thickness solid conductor is theoretically investigated. Peak brilliance above 1025 photons s−1 mrad−2 mm−2 per 0.1% bandwidth is expected.

  • The largely unexplored strong-field QED regime in high-field science could be probed using high-energy particle beams and high-intensity lasers. Here the authors propose a concept to probe strong-field QED by harnessing the interaction between an ultrarelativistic electron beam and a solid and whose setup is based on the collision between the high-density beam and the self-fields reflected at the plasma boundary.
