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 کاملPair creation by a photon in a strong magnetic field
The process of pair creation by a photon in a strong magnetic field is investigated basing on the polarization operator in the field. The total probability of the process is found in a relatively simple form. The probability exhibits a ”saw-tooth” pattern because of divergences arising when the electron and positron are created at threshold of the Landau energy levels. The pattern will be washe...
متن کاملComment on the paper : “ Neutrino pair production by a virtual photon in an external magnetic field ” by Zhukovskii
We point out some serious mistakes in the investigation of Zhukovskii et al. Both the amplitude and the probability of the process were calculated wrongly, that is, the problem of the neutrino pair production by a virtual photon in an external magnetic field is still unsolved.

متن کاملPair production in a strong slowly varying magnetic field: the effect of a background gravitational field
The production probability of an e− − e+ pair in the presence of a strong, uniform and slowly varying magnetic field is calculated by taking into account the presence of a background gravitational field. The curvature of the spacetime metric induced by the gravitational field not only changes the transition probabilities calculated in the Minkowski spacetime but also primes transitions that are...
