Gutzwiller's Trace Formula and Vacuum Pair Production
arXiv:0706.4006 · doi:10.1088/1751-8113/40/34/F01
Abstract
We propose a new application of the Gutzwiller trace formula formalism, to give a compact expression for the semiclassical vacuum pair production rate in quantum electrodynamics, for general inhomogeneous electromagnetic background fields.
