Description

Non-linear Compton scattering in ultra-short intense laser pulses is discussed. The focus is on angular and azimuthal distributions of the emitted photon in intense single-cycle and few-cycle laser pulses. Asymmetries of the azimuthal distributions are predicted for both linear and circular polarization. For linear polarization, the dominant direction of the emission changes from a perpendicular pattern with respect to the laser polarization at low-intensity to a dominantly parallel emission for high-intensity laser pulses.
