“…laser-plasma interactions [1031] or optical media [1032]. Using linearised gravity (sufficient given the tiny signal sizes), one can straightforwardly calculate metric perturbations due to laser-accelerated relativistic ions [1033], standing waves of light [1034], or laser pulses themselves [1035]. The latter were found to give slightly better prospects for detection than waves generated by acceleration of matter through laser-driven ablation of foil targets [1036].…”

Upcoming and planned experiments combining increasingly intense lasers and energetic particle beams will access new regimes of nonlinear, relativistic, quantum effects. This improved experimental capability has driven substantial progress in QED in intense background fields. We review here the advances made during the last decade, with a focus on theory and phenomenology. As ever higher intensities are reached, it becomes necessary to consider processes at higher orders in both the number of scattered particles and the number of loops, and to account for non-perturbative physics (e.g. the Schwinger effect), with extreme intensities requiring resummation of the loop expansion. In addition to increased intensity, experiments will reach higher accuracy, and these improvements are being matched by developments in theory such as in approximation frameworks, the description of finite-size effects, and the range of physical phenomena analysed. Topics on which there has been substantial progress include: radiation reaction, spin and polarisation, nonlinear quantum vacuum effects and connections to other fields including physics beyond the Standard Model.

“…The scheme was suggested in [7,8] by using the material ablation [25] and the radiation pressure [26]. The piston and light-sail models of ion acceleration have been analyzed in the context of gravitational waves in [27]. We investigate the polarization of gravitational waves and the behavior of test particles in the gravitational field.…”

We analyze theoretical models of gravitational waves generation in the interaction of high intensity laser with matter. We analyse the generated gravitational waves in linear approximation of gravitational theory. We derive the analytical formulas and estimates for the metric perturbations and the radiated power of generated gravitational waves. Furthermore we investigate the characteristics of polarization and the behaviour of test particles in the presence of gravitational wave which will be important for the detection.The values for integration of the density (6) in Eq. (11) in [5] are x ∈< 0, a), y ∈< 0, b) and z ∈< 0, z L > which splits into < 0, z r ) and (z r , z L >. In other words, we integrate over the box in the Fig. 3 in [5]. We denoteand when z = 0 the function m(0, t) = 1 for every t.The mass moment Eq. (11) in [5] is listed in Appendix (B1) and (B2) where we used (8), then the diagonal com-

“…In section 4, we will apply this calculation method to a simple model of a light pulse: the cylinder of light, of constant energy density and moving at the speed of light in vacuum c. In section 5, we will analyze the results obtained by keeping in mind the characteristics of the laser sources that could be used in a laboratory experiment. In section 6, we will summarize our results and compare them with those obtained by Ribeyre and Tikhonchuk [5], Gelfer et al [6] and Kadlecová et al [7] in the case of a massive source. We will also mention the future developments of this paper.…”

“…The first is the explosive acceleration of a quantity of mass, which would generate a deformation of space-time through the quadrupolar acceleration of mass. This deformation can be conceived by the means of a laser striking a target ( [5], [6], [7]) or in a more extreme manner by the explosion of a thermonuclear bomb [8]. The second is the generation of a gravitational deformation by an electromagnetic wave, whose coherence is an advantage in the generation of an important deformation [9].…”

The study of gravitational wave generation in the laboratory presents an opportunity to observe and understand more easily the mechanisms at work in gravitation. The present study will focus on the gravitational deformation generated by a light pulse, as it could be generated by a current ultra-high power laser. Although of very small magnitude, the deformation thus generated has advantages over that generated by mass acceleration, and could therefore prove useful in the longterm establishment of a laboratory experiment for the generation and detection of gravitational waves.
