Radiation Dominated Electromagnetic Shield

ORAL

Abstract

We analyze the radiating electron interaction with oscillating electric and magnetic field configurations, which represent three-dimensional standing electromagnetic waves having various electromagnetic field polarizations. During collision of a high energy beam of ultra-relativistic electrons with a high amplitude electromagnetic field, when the radiation friction force effects are dominant, asymptotically becomes trapped in the regions of the local maximum of the electric field due to nonlinear dependence of the radiation friction force on the driver electromagnetic field. We discuss possible experimental implementation of this field configuration.
