Photon acceleration and relativistic engineering. 330 $aThe continuous trend towards higher and higher laser intensities has opened the way to new physical regimes and advanced applications of laser-plasma interactions, thus stimulating novel connections with ultrafast optics, astrophysics, particle physics, and biomedical applications. This book is primarily oriented towards students and young researchers who need to acquire rapidly a basic knowledge of this active and rapidly changing research field. To this aim, the presentation is focused on a selection of basic models and inspiring examples, and includes topics which emerged recently such as ion acceleration, "relativistic engineering" and radiation friction. The contents are presented in a self-contained way assuming only a basic knowledge of classical electrodynamics, mechanics and relativistic dynamics at the undergraduate (Bachelor) level, without requiring any previous knowledge of plasma physics. Hence, the book may serve in several ways: as a compact textbook for lecture courses, as a short and accessible introduction for the newcomer, as a quick reference for the experienced researcher, and also as an introduction to some nonlinear mathematical methods through examples of their application to laser-plasma modeling. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Physics,$x2191-5423 606 $aLaser-plasma interactions 606 $aPlasma (Ionized gases) 615 0$aLaser-plasma interactions. 615 0$aPlasma (Ionized gases) 676 $a530.44 676 $a621.36/6 700 $aMacchi$b Andrea$0823848 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910739458203321 996 $aA Superintense Laser-Plasma Interaction Theory Primer$93553457 997 $aUNINA
