摘要：

The mechanism of stochastic electron acceleration and heating by a picosecond laser pulse in underdense plasma is studied using particle-in-cell simulations and theoretical models. The formation of wide electron energy spectra in the simultaneously acting laser and plasma fields is analyzed. It is shown that electron scattering by turbulent plasma fluctuations excited through stimulated forward Raman scattering plays a governing role in the formation of high-energy tails in the electron distribution function.
