我们证明了使用 100 GeV 级粒子对撞机探测量子电动力学的完全非微扰状态的实验可行性。通过使用紧密压缩和聚焦的电子束，可以减轻束致辐射损失，从而使粒子能够经历极端的电磁场。三维细胞内粒子模拟证实了这种方法的可行性。所设想的实验前沿有可能建立一个新的研究领域，并刺激这种尚未探索的强场量子电动力学领域新的理论方法的发展。
We demonstrate the experimental feasibility of probing the fully nonperturbative regime of quantum electrodynamics with a 100 GeV-class particle collider. By using tightly compressed and focused electron beams, beamstrahlung radiation losses can be mitigated, allowing the particles to experience extreme electromagnetic fields. Three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations confirm the viability of this approach. The experimental forefront envisaged has the potential to establish a novel research field and to stimulate the development of a new theoretical methodology for this yet unexplored regime of strong-field quantum electrodynamics.
