“…The polarization effects in strong laser fields have a capability of detecting the quantum stochastic nature of electron dynamics [19], diagnosing magnetic fields of plasma [20], and providing ultra-short, high-brilliance, low-emittance polarized beam sources for fundamental studies in high-energy physics [21][22][23] and material science [24,25]. The completely spin-and photon-polarization-resolved probability rates for nonlinear Compton scattering have been derived from strong-field QED theory in the Furry picture for a plane-wave laser field [26], and for the locally constant fields [27], as well as via the quantum operator method [28], and employed for a deep analysis of all polarization channels, helicity transfer in the perturbative regime, and investigation of the polarization dependent energy and angle distributions [29]. Furthermore, the study of polarization effects has been extended to higher-order QED processes [30][31][32][33][34][35], and QED cascades [36].…”
