Photon Splitting in a Strong Magnetic Field: Recalculation and Comparison with Previous Calculations Typeset Using Revt E X
نویسندگان
چکیده
We recalculate the amplitude for photon splitting in a strong magnetic eld below the pair production threshold, using the worldline path integral variant of the Bern{Kosower formalism. Numerical comparison (using programs that we have made available for public access on the Internet) shows that the results of the recalculation are identical to the earlier calculations of Adler and later of Stoneham, and to the recent recalculation by Baier, Milstein, and Shaisultanov.

Magnetotunneling through a Semiconductor Double Barrier Structure Assisted by Light. Typeset Using Revt E X 1
We have analyzed theoretically the effect of a laser on the tunneling current through a double barrier in the presence of a parallel magnetic field. The magnetotunneling current is modified by the light due to the photon emission and absorption processes which assist the tunneling of electrons through the structure. We observe that the effect of the light can be controlled by tuning the ratio b...
متن کاملTypeset Using Revt E X 1
The cross sections for the processes γν → γγν, γγ → γνν̄ and νν̄ → γγγ are calculated for a range of center of mass energies from belowme to considerably above me, but much less than mW . This enables us to treat the neutrino– electron coupling as a four–Fermi interaction and results in amplitudes which are electron box diagrams with three real photons and one virtual photon at their vertices. Th...

متن کاملDo Inertial Electric Charges Radiate with Respect to Uniformly Accelerated Observers? * Typeset Using Revt E X
We revisit the long standing problem of analyzing an inertial electric charge from the point of view of uniformly accelerated observers in the context of semi-classical gravity. We choose a suitable set of accelerated observers with respect to which there is no photon emission coming from the inertial charge. We discuss this result against previous claims [1]. 04.60.+n Typeset using REVTEX This...
