The CMS experiment will be upgrading its detectors in lieu of higher lu-
minosities and collision rates during the High-Luminosity era of the LHC (HL-
LHC). One key upgrade of the CMS detector will be its end-cap calorimeters,
which will be fitted with the new High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL).
Since the HL-LHC will have 10 times more luminosity, the HGCAL will have
improved radiation...
Strong-Field Quantum Electrodynamics (SFQED) is an emergent field
of physics, where conventional quantum electrodynamics calculations
become non-perturbative due to a strong electromagnetic background
field. This gives rise to non-linear Compton scattering and non-linear
Breit-Wheeler pair production. Advances in laser technology have
made it possible to explore this field, by colliding...
