Abstract

It is found that the spectral characteristics of relativistic electrons moving in the field of a terawatt laser and through static transverse fields differ significantly. It is shown that, as applied to studying the nonlinear generation of higher harmonics and quantum recoil and spin effects upon hard photon emission, the Ba\(\overset{\lower0.5em\hbox{$\smash{\scriptscriptstyle\smile}$}}{l} \)er-Katkov method has advantages over other methods. Numerical data for the efficiency of hard photon generation in the field of terawatt lasers and in oriented crystals are reported.
