Scaling law for the photon spectral density in the nonlinear Thomson-Compton scattering

Scaling law for the photon spectral density in the nonlinear Thomson-Compton scattering

We derive a new scaling law for the photon spectral density in nonlinear Thomson/Compton scattering, extending the findings of Heinzl, Seipt, and Kämpfer [Phys. Rev. A 81, 022125 (2010)PLRAAN1050-294710.1103/PhysRevA.81.022125]. This allows one to easily include the effects of general scattering geo...
