Ultra-bright γ-ray emission and dense positron production from two laser-driven colliding foils

Matter can be transferred into energy and the opposite transformation is also possible by use of high-power lasers. A laser pulse in plasma can convert its energy into γ-rays and then e (−) e (+) pairs via the multi-photon Breit-Wheeler process. Production of dense positrons at GeV energies is very...
