Radiation forces to electrons in laser fields explained as scattering for ponderomotive momentum transfers

Abstract

The ponderomotive momentum exchange in laser interaction with electrons is derived using a scattering model. This explains how the momentum is exchanged globally when an electron is emitted radially from a laser beam while the axial exchange of momentum is coupled with the momentum of the electromagnetic energy transferred from the laser field to the electron in the form of kinetic energy. Special attention is given to the forces acting on electrons in a laser beam and expelling the electrons laterally from the beam. 14 refs.
