Positron production in collision of heavy nuclei

Abstract

We consider the electromagnetic production of positron in collision of slow heavy nuclei, with the simultaneously produced electron captured by one of the nuclei. The cross-section of the discussed process exceeds essentially the cross-section of $e^{+}{e}^{-}$ production.
