Abstract

High-energy laser interaction with matter (gaseous and solid targets) provides electric fields going beyond the limit of one teravolt per meter (1 TV = 10 12 V) and permit efficient acceleration of particles in the relativistic regime, typically with MeV energy. Exceptional properties of these new particules sources (shortness, charge, emittance) may conjecture transdisciplinary researches such as physics' accelerators, prethermal reactivity in soft matter, radiobiology and radiotherapy, imaging. The challenge of high-energy femtochemistry is broached in the framework of water, «the life's solvent».
