The collision of ultra-relativistic electron beams with intense short laser pulses makes possible to study QED in the high-intensity regime. Present day high-intensity lasers mostly operate with short pulse durations of several tens of femtoseconds, i.e. only a few optical cycles. A profound theoretical understanding of short pulse effects is important not only for studying fundamental aspects of high-intensity laser matter interaction, but also for applications as novel X- and gamma-ray radiation sources. In this article we give a brief overview of the theory of high-intensity QED with focus on effects due to the short pulse duration. The non-linear spectral broadening in non-linear Compton scattering due to the short pulse duration and its compensation is discussed.

    hep-th 2025-07 unverdicted novelty 8.0

    Exact tree-level MHV graviton scattering amplitudes at arbitrary multiplicity are obtained on self-dual Taub-NUT backgrounds using twistor theory, including spin via Newman-Janis shift, with undeformed celestial symmetries.

    Photon emission amplitudes in totally depleting flying focus beams equal a Gaussian average over momentum variables of the corresponding plane-wave amplitudes, obtained via conformal transformations of Volkov solutions.

    physics.optics 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A non-negative joint distribution is constructed within the SFQED framework and applied to nonlinear Compton scattering in complex laser pulses with CEP and variable polarization.

  4. Arbitrary-Velocity Volkov Wavepackets

    quant-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Momentum correlations imposed on Volkov states create wavepackets whose probability-density peak propagates at an arbitrary velocity independent of field amplitude and expectation-value velocity.
