On electron dynamics in the laser and static electric and magnetic fields.

S. I. Krasheninnikov, Yanzeng Zhang

A 2D slab approximation of the interactions of electrons with intense linearly polarized laser radiation and static electric and magnetic fields is widely used for both numerical simulations and simplified semi-analytical models. It is shown that in this case electron dynamics can be conveniently described in the framework of 3/2 dimensional Hamiltonian approach. The electron acceleration beyond a standard ponderomotive scaling, caused by the synergistic effects of the laser and static electro-magnetic fields, is due to an onset of stochastic electron motion.
