We point out that using the state-of-the-art (or soon-to-be) intense electromagnetic pulses, violent accelerations that may be suitable for testing quantum field theory in curved spacetime can be realized through the interaction of a high-intensity laser with an electron. In particular, we demonstrate that the Unruh radiation is detectable, in principle, beyond the conventional radiation (most notably the Larmor radiation) background noise, by taking advantage of its specific dependence on the laser power and distinct character in spectral-angular distributions.

The Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna (ANITA) completed its second Long Duration Balloon flight in January 2009, with 31 days aloft (28.5 live days) over Antarctica. ANITA searches for impulsive coherent radio Cherenkov emission from 200 to 1200 MHz, arising from the Askaryan charge excess in ultrahigh energy neutrino-induced cascades within Antarctic ice. This flight included significant improvements over the first flight in payload sensitivity, efficiency, and flight trajectory. Analysis of in-flight calibration pulses from surface and subsurface locations verifies the expected sensitivity. In a blind analysis, we find 2 surviving events on a background, mostly anthropogenic, of 0.97±0.42 events. We set the strongest limit to date for 1018–1021  eV cosmic neutrinos, excluding several current cosmogenic neutrino models.
