Description
At the frontier of ultra-high electromagnetic intensities, it is now possible to access peak laser intensities of up to ∼
Here we present the recent development of a high-energy gamma-ray spectrometer [6,7] and a gamma-ray profiler [8,9] suited for this challenging task. Numerical modelling and proof-of-concept experimental tests indicate the possibility of measuring the spectrum and spatial profile of GeV-scale gamma-ray beams with %-level and micron-scale precision, respectively. These diagnostics will be included in several SFQED experimental platforms [10,11] and are expected to represent key diagnostics for this class of experiments.
