We propose a self-consistent model which utilizes the polarization vector to theoretically describe the evolution of spin polarization of relativistic electrons in an intense electromagnetic field. The variation of radiative polarization due to instantaneous no photon emission is introduced into our model, which extends the applicability of the polarization vector model derived from the nonlinear Compton scattering under local constant crossed-field approximation to the complex electromagnetic environment in laser plasma interaction. According to this model, we develop a Monte Carlo method to simulate the electron spin under the influence of radiation and precession simultaneously. Our model is consistent with the quantum physical picture that spin can only be described by a probability distribution before measurement, and it contains the entire information on the spin. The correctness of our model is confirmed by the successful reproduction of the Sokolov-Ternov effect and the comparison of the simulation results with other models in the literature. The results show the superiority in accuracy, applicability, and computational efficiency of our model, and we believe that our model is a better choice to deal with the electron spin in particle-in-cell simulation for laser plasma interaction.

Stochasticity effects in the spin (de)polarization of an ultrarelativistic electron beam during photon emissions in a counterpropoagating ultrastrong focused laser pulse in the quantum radiation reaction regime are investigated. We employ a Monte Car
lo method to describe the electron dynamics semiclassically, and photon emissions as well as the electron radiative polarization quantum mechanically. While in the latter the photon emission is inherently stochastic, we were able to identify its imprints in comparison with the new developed semiclassical stochasticity-free method of radiative polarization applicable in the quantum regime. With an initially spin-polarized electron beam, the stochastic spin effects are seen in the dependence of the depolarization degree on the electron scattering angle and the electron final energy (spin stochastic diffusion). With an initially unpolarized electron beam, the spin stochasticity is exhibited in enhancing the known effect of splitting of the electron beam along the propagation direction into two oppositely polarized parts by an elliptically polarized laser pulse. The considered stochasticity effects for the spin are observable with currently achievable laser and electron beam parameters.
Here, we demonstrate the radiative polarization of high-energy electron beams in collisions with ultrashort pulsed bi-chromatic laser fields. Employing a Boltzmann kinetic approach for the electron distribution allows us to simulate the beam polariza
tion over a wide range of parameters and determine the optimum conditions for maximum radiative polarization. Those results are contrasted with a Monte-Carlo algorithm where photon emission and associated spin effects are treated fully quantum mechanically using spin-dependent photon emission rates. The latter method includes realistic focusing laser fields, which allows us to simulate a near-term experimentally feasible scenario of a 8 GeV electron beam scattering from a 1 PW laser pulse and provide a measurement that would verify the ultrafast radiative polarization in high-intensity laser pulses that we predict. Aspects of spin dependent radiation reaction are also discussed, with spin polarization leading to a measurable (5%) splitting of the energies of spin-up and spin-down electrons.
Non-linear cascade scattering of intense, tightly focused laser pulses by relativistic electrons is studied numerically in the classical approximation including the radiation damping for the quantum parameter hwx-ray/E<1 and an arbitrary radiation pa
rameter Kai. The electron energy loss, along with its side scattering by the ponderomotive force, makes the scattering in the vicinity of high laser field nearly impossible at high electron energies. The use of a second, co-propagating laser pulse as a booster is shown to solve this problem.
A formalism for describing relativistic ponderomotive effects, which occur in the dynamics of an electron driven by a focused relativisticaly intense optical envelope, is established on the basis of a rigorous asymptotic expansion of the Newton and M
axwell equations in a small parameter proportional to the ratio of radiation wavelength to beam waist. The pertinent ground-state and first order solutions are generated as functions of the electron proper time with the help of the Krylov-Bogolyubov technique, the equations for the phase-averaged components of the ground state arising from the condition that the first-order solutions sustain non-secular behaviour. In the case of the scattering of a sparse electron ensemble by a relativistically intense laser pulse with an axially symmetric transverse distribution of amplitude, the resulting ponderomotive model further affords averaging over the random initial directions of the electron momenta and predicts axially symmetric electron scatter. Diagrams of the electron scatter directionality relative to the optical field propagation axis and energy spectra within selected angles are calculated from the compact ponderomotive model. The hot part of the scatter obeys a clear energy-angle dependence stemming from the adiabatic invariance inherent in the model, with smaller energies allocated to greater angular deviations from the field propagation axis, while the noise-level cold part of the scatter tends to spread almost uniformly over a wide range of angles. The allowed energy diapasons within specific angular ranges are only partially covered by the actual high-energy electron scatter.
We compute the real and imaginary parts of the electric permittivities and magnetic permeabilities for relativistic electrons from quantum electrodynamics at finite temperature and density. A semiclassical approximation establishes the conditions for
neglecting nonlinear terms in the external electromagnetic fields as well as electron-electron interactions. We obtain both the electric and magnetic responses in a unified manner and relate them to longitudinal and transverse collective plasma oscillations. We demonstrate that such collective modes are thresholds for a metamaterial regime of the electron plasma which exhibits simultaneously negative longitudinal permittities and permeabilities. For nonzero temperatures, we obtain electromagnetic responses given by one-dimensional integrals to be numerically calculated, whereas for zero temperature we find analytic expressions for both their real/dispersive and imaginary/absorptive parts.
