Abstract
We have calculated the exact trajectories of 3321 electrons when struck by one 0.6 Joule optical pulse that is an exact solution of Maxwell´s equations. These 3321 were initially at rest in a 1 mum-spaced cubic lattice around the focus of the 1 mum-wavelengfh pulse. Electrons gained energies up to 0.230 GeV.
