Photon Damping Caused by Electron-Positron Pair Production in a Strong Magnetic Field
Damping of an electromagnetic wave in a strong magnetic field is analyzed in the kinematic region near the threshold of electron-positron pair production. Damping of the electromagnetic field is shown to be noticeably nonexponential in this region. The resulting width of the photon γ → e+e− decay is considerably smaller than previously known results.

متن کاملElectron–Positron Pair Production by Electromagnetic Pulses
Electron–positron pair production in vacuum by a single focused laser pulse and by two counterpropagating colliding focused pulses is analyzed. A focused laser pulse is described using a realistic threedimensional model based on an exact solution of Maxwell’s equations. In particular, this model reproduces an important property of focused beams, namely, the existence of two types of waves with ...
متن کاملElectron-positron pair production by photons in nonuniform strong fields.
A probability of electron-positron pair production by photons in strong nonuniform fields is derived by applying a model trajectory method in the frame of a semiclassical approach. In addition to the well known invariant field parameter chi, a new invariant parameter nu is introduced to characterize the nonuniformity of the field. For nu>>1, the obtained expression is reduced to the uniform-fie...
متن کاملOn Electron-Positron Pair Production by a Spatially Nonuniform Electric Field
A detailed analysis of electron-positron pair creation induced by a spatially nonuniform and static electric field from vacuum is presented. A typical example is provided by the Sauter potential. For this potential, we derive the analytic expressions for vacuum decay and pair production rate accounted for the entire range of spatial variations. In the limit of a sharp step, we recover the diver...
متن کاملElectron-Positron Pair Production in the Deep Quantum Regime
Electron-positron pair production via real and virtual photons is signi cant to the design of linear colliders, especially in the deep quantum regime (i.e., beamstrahlung parameter >> 1). In this regime, pair production via a virtual photon (the trident process) can become comparable in rate to pair production via a real beamstrahlung photon. We derive characteristics of the e+epairs produced v...
