Abstract

We point out that using the state-of-the-art (or soon-to-be) intense electromagnetic pulses, violent accelerations that may be suitable for testing quantum field theory in curved spacetime can be realized through the interaction of a high-intensity laser with an electron. In particular, we demonstrate that the Unruh radiation is detectable, in principle, beyond the conventional radiation (most notably the Larmor radiation) background noise, by taking advantage of its specific dependence on the laser power and distinct character in spectral-angular distributions.
