Spatially Assisted Schwinger Mechanism and Magnetic Catalysis.
Using the worldline formalism we compute an effective action for fermions under a temporally modulated electric field and a spatially modulated magnetic field. It is known that the former leads to an enhanced Schwinger mechanism, while we find that the latter can also result in enhanced particle production and even cause a reorganization of the vacuum to acquire a larger dynamical mass in equil...
متن کاملSchwinger Effect in String Theory
I discuss the quantum instability of an electric field in a theory of open strings. One of the few available hints on the interplay between quantum theory and gravity is the Hawking emission of a black hole 1. This can be described as pair creation in the background gravitational field. Of the two produced particles one stays trapped inside the horizon, while the other escapes to infinity where...
متن کاملNotes on holographic Schwinger effect
We use the method of evaluating the decay rate in terms of the imaginary part of a probe brane action to study the holographic Schwinger effect. In the confining D3-branes case, we find that the Schwinger effect occurs at energy scales higher than the Kaluza-Klein mass, indicating the absence of such effect when the dual gauge field theory can be regarded as an 2+1 dimensional theory. This prop...
متن کاملInflationary Perturbations: the Cosmological Schwinger Effect
This pedagogical review aims at presenting the fundamental aspects of the theory of inflationary cosmological perturbations of quantum-mechanical origin. The analogy with the well-known Schwinger effect is discussed in detail and a systematic comparison of the two physical phenomena is carried out. In particular, it is demonstrated that the two underlying formalisms differ only up to an irrelev...
متن کاملHolographic Schwinger effect and the geometry of entanglement.
We show that the recently proposed bulk dual of an entangled pair of a quark and an antiquark corresponds to the Lorentzian continuation of the tunneling instanton describing Schwinger pair creation in the dual field theory. This observation supports and further explains the claim by Jensen and Karch that the bulk dual of an Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen pair is a string with a wormhole on its world ...
