Abstract
The acceleration of electrons by very intense lasers in vacuum is studied for different forms of laser pulses: finite plane and three-dimensional laser pulses. The latter case is treated by introducing an approximation of the laser frequency as a function of the Cartesian components of the wave number. Various examples which lead to high accelerations of electrons are given.
