摘要
We put forward a concrete experimental setup allowing to measure light -by -light scattering in the collision of two optical high -intensity laser beams at state-of-the-art high -field facilities operating petawatt class laser systems. Our setup uses the same focusing optics for both laser beams to be collided and employs a dark -field approach for the detection of the single -photon -level nonlinear quantum vacuum response in the presence of a large background. Based on an advanced modeling of the colliding laser fields, we in particular provide reliable estimates for the prospective numbers of signal photons scattered into the dark field for various laser polarizations.
