Abstract
In this paper we present the inelastic scattering of electrons by a pulsed laser beam in free-space using the computational simulation technique. Emphasis is put on the inelastic scattering resulting from the time-varying nature of the pulsed laser fields. It is also found that the effects can be explained within the framework of time-dependent ponderomotive potentials if the field intensity Q0≡eE0/meωc≤0.1.
