Dear Richard,

Thank you so much. The first method works.

All best

Hi Bifeng Lei,

there are two options in PIConGPU to include your own laser:

1) You can write your own laser profile in src/picongpu/include/fields/laserProfiles/ by adding a file which describes your laser and then include this *.hpp file in laserConfig.unitless and add the setup parameters and their conversion from SI units to PIC units ins both laserConfig.unitless and laserConfig.param.

2) You can use the fieldBackground.param file to describe your laser/field over time. An example on a (TWTS) laser pulse can be found here.

Best,
Richard
