Laser Requirements for High-Order Harmonic Generation by Relativistic Plasma Singularities

Laser Requirements for High-Order Harmonic Generation by Relativistic Plasma Singularities

We discuss requirements on relativistic-irradiance (I0 > 1018 W/cm2) high-power (multi-terawatt) ultrashort (femtosecond) lasers for efficient generation of high-order harmonics in gas jet targets in a new regime discovered recently (Pirozhkov et al., 2012). Here, we present the results of se...
