Energy gain by laser-accelerated electrons in a strong magnetic field

Energy gain by laser-accelerated electrons in a strong magnetic field

The manuscript deals with electron acceleration by a laser pulse in a plasma with a static uniform magnetic field $B_*$. The laser pulse propagates perpendicular to the magnetic field lines with the polarization chosen such that $({\bf{E}}_{laser} \cdot {\bf{B}}_*) = 0$. The focus of the work is on the electrons …
