Theory of Light Sail Acceleration by Intense Lasers: an Overview
  A short overview of the theory of acceleration of thin foils driven by the radiation pressure of superintense lasers is presented. A simple criterion for radiation pressure dominance at intensities around $5 \times 10^{20} \mbox{W cm}^{-2}$ is given, and the possibility for fast energy gain in the relativistic regime is discussed.
