The LUXE - Laser und XFEL Experiment - Report from the “LUXE physics and SFQED workshop” and LUXE Collaboration Meeting
In the seminar I will present the progress in the preparation of the LUXE experiment after publishing in 2023 the TDR:Technical Design Report.LUXE is an experiment currently being developed at DESY in Hamburg, that aims to use the high-quality electron beam of the European XFEL facility and a high-power optical laser.The scientific goal of the experiment is to study quantum electrodynamics in the largely unexplored territory, in the regime of strong fields (SFQED), close to and beyond the Schwinger limit, revealing the non-perturbative face of QED.
