Primer of Strong-Field Quantum Electrodynamics for Experimentalists
Abstract
This review serves as a conceptual and practical introduction to strong-field quantum electrodynamics (SFQED), written from the standpoint of experimental physicists. Rather than providing a comprehensive theoretical review, the paper focuses on the core ideas, terminology, and challenges in SFQED that are most relevant to experimental design and interpretation. The review serves as a first point of contact with the subject, bridging the gap between foundational theory and hands-on experimental investigations, and complementing more formal literature in the field.
