Description

The bremsstrahlung process in the domain of strong Coulomb fields has been investigated for N2 and Ar target electrons colliding with He-like uranium ions at 223 MeV/u. The differential cross sections for bremsstrahlung were measured at laboratory observation angles of 48 deg., 90 deg., and 132 deg. Substantial discrepancies were found between the experimental cross sections and the first-order Born approximation calculations. The reported data provide a new testing ground for non-perturbative treatment of the coupling between radiation and matter in the presence of strong fields. (author)
