The reflectivity of relativistic ultra-thin electron layers
  The coherent reflectivity of a dense, relativistic, ultra-thin electron layer is derived analytically for an obliquely incident probe beam. Results are obtained by two-fold Lorentz transformation. For the analytical treatment, a plane uniform electron layer is considered. All electrons move with uniform velocity under an angle to the normal direction of the plane; such electron motion corresponds to laser acceleration by direct action of the laser fields, as it is described in a companion paper. Electron density is chosen high enough to ensure that many electrons reside in a volume \lambda_R^3, where \lambda_R is the wavelength of the reflected light in the rest frame of the layer. Under these conditions, the probe light is back-scattered coherently and is directed close to the layer normal rather than the direction of electron velocity. An important consequence is that the Doppler shift is governed by \gamma_x=(1-(V_x/c)^2)^{-1/2} derived from the electron velocity component V_x in normal direction rather than the full \gamma-factor of the layer electrons.
