Abstract

By solving the Dirac-Lorentz equation numerically with a perturbative predictor-corrector method, we find that the electron inelastic scattering by an intense stationary laser beam is heavily modified by the radiation, reaction, when the electron is injected upon the laser beam with a large crossing angle (θ > 10°). This is the first time the Dirac-Lorentz equation is applied to study the interaction of an electron with a real laser beam in the Hermite-Gaussian mode.
