Hydrodynamical model of QED cascade expansion in an extremely strong laser pulse

The development of a self-sustained quantum electrodynamical (QED) cascade in a single strong laser pulse is studied analytically and numerically. A hydrodynamical approach is used to construct an analytical model of cascade evolution, which includes the key features of the cascade observed in 3D QE...
