Description
Various high-brightness phenomena have been discovered in astrophysics, including radio pulsars and fast radio bursts. However, the emission mechanisms behind these extreme phenomena remain a longstanding mystery. Theoretical and numerical studies on the propagation of intense radiation have recently gained attention as a means to probe the physical conditions surrounding these sources. In this talk, we present a laboratory-based experimental approach to investigating the propagation of intense radiation observed in space, using high-intensity laser experiments. In particular, we introduce our proof-of-principle experiment on induced Compton scattering and discuss its implications for unresolved nonlinear phenomena and various related astrophysical processes.
