abstract = {The LUXE experiment (Laser Und XFEL Experiment) is an
experiment in planning at DESY Hamburg using the electron
beam of the European XFEL. LUXE is intended to study
collisions between a high-intensity optical laser pulse and
16.5 GeV electrons, as well as collisions between the laser
pulse and high-energy secondary photons. This will elucidate
quantum electrodynamics (QED) at the strong-field frontier,
where the electromagnetic field of the laser is above the
Schwinger limit. In this regime, QED is non-perturbative.
This manifests itself in the creation of physical
electron-positron pairs from the QED vacuum, similar to
Hawking radiation from black holes. LUXE intends to measure
the positron production rate in an unprecedented laser
intensity regime. An overview of the LUXE experimental setup
and its challenges and progress is given in this article,
along with a discussion of the expected physics reach in the
context of testing QED in the non-perturbative regime.},
