We review the modern state of research in a new scientific field that has emerged recently:
nuclear photonics. The name is primarily associated with the development of new …

Abstract Sub-10 attosecond pulses (APs) with half-cycle electric fields provide exceptional
options to detect and manipulate electrons in the atomic timescale. However, the availability …

Low-intensity light beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM), commonly known as
vortex beams, have garnered significant attention due to promising applications in areas …

The efficiency of high-order harmonic generation from a relativistic laser interacting with
solid targets depends greatly on surface plasma distribution. The usual method of …

We investigate the discrete orbital angular momentum (OAM) of photoelectrons freed in
strong-field ionization. We use these 'twisted'electrons to provide an alternative …

An ionization induced plasma grating can be formed by spatially selective ionization of
gases by the interference of two intersecting ultra-short laser pulses. The density modulation …

When a high power laser beam irradiates a small aperture on a solid foil target, the strong
laser field drives surface plasma oscillation at the periphery of this aperture, which acts as a …

Traditional spiral zone plates (SZPs) have been widely used to generate optical vortices, but
this structure suffers from multiple focuses. To eliminate high-order foci, the current method …

X/γ-rays have many potential applications in laboratory astrophysics and particle physics.
Although several methods have been proposed for generating electron, positron, and X/γ …

Optical vortices (OVs) with unique square symmetry are widely used in various applications
including particle manipulation, microscopy, and image processing. However, the undesired …
