Radiation reaction effects will play an important role in near-future laser facilities, yet their theoretical description remains obscure. We explore the Ford-O'Connell equation for radiation reaction, and discuss its relation to other commonly used treatments. By analyzing the interaction of a high energy electron in an intense laser pulse, we find that radiation reaction effects prevent the particle from accessing a regime in which the Landau-Lifshitz approximation breaks down.
辐射反应效应将在不久的将来的激光设施中发挥重要作用，但其理论描述仍然模糊不清。我们探讨了辐射反应的福特 - 奥康奈尔方程，并讨论了它与其他常用处理方法的关系。通过分析高能电子在强激光脉冲中的相互作用，我们发现辐射反应效应阻止粒子进入朗道 - 里夫希茨近似失效的区域。
