DOI: 10.1088/1475-7516/2023/05/041
Abstract: In this paper, we present the formalism of simulating Lyman-α emission and polarization around reionization (z = 8) from a plane-parallel ionization front. We accomplish this by using a Monte Carlo method to simulate the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreve.107.045203
Abstract: Frequency up-conversion (∼10%) and compression (almost twofold) of a powerful (≤250 MW) microwave pulse in the propagating ionization front produced by the pulse itself in a gas-filled waveguide, is investigated experimentally and analyzed theoretically. Pulse… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.123.124801
Abstract: A high-intensity laser pulse propagating through a medium triggers an ionization front that can accelerate and frequency upshift the photons of a second pulse. The maximum upshift is ultimately limited by the accelerated photons outpacing… read more here.
