Abstract
The scattering of low-intensity tight by electrons is a linear process, in which the scattered light frequency is identical to that of the incident light and light’s magnetic field plays no role.1 With the recent invention of ultra-high- peak-power lasers2 it is now possible to create a sufficient photon density to study Thomson scattering in the relativistic regime.
