Enhanced inverse Compton scattering via spontaneous focusing induced by a coated plasma mirror

Nature.com·July 23, 2026

It has been proposed that coated plasma mirrors could spontaneously form a focusing structure that strengthens the reflected laser intensity to enhance the efficiency of inverse Compton scattering. Now it is demonstrated that the efficiency can reach 10−3 wit…
