Experimental Signatures of the Quantum Nature of Radiation Reaction in the Field of an Ultraintense Laser

The description of the dynamics of an electron in an external electromagnetic field of arbitrary intensity is one of the most fundamental outstanding problems in electrodynamics. Remarkably, to date, there is no unanimously accepted theoretical solution for ultrahigh intensities and little or no exp...
