摘要
The interactions of laser field with plasma are studied by using the analog model of gravity. The interactions of laser field with plasma are regarded as an equivalent effective geometry. An effective metric for a plasma electron is developed. Validity of the metric is confirmed in the limit of non-relativity. The three-dimensional equation of motion for a plasma electron is derived from the general covariant equation of motion. The ponderomotive force and the Abraham＇s force are directly obtained from the three-dimensional equation.
