Field-induced axion decay $a \to e^{+} e^{-}$ in KSVZ-model

arXiv:hep-ph/9712423 · doi:10.1142/9789814447263_0029

Abstract

The axion decay into electron-positron pair $a \to e^{+} e^{-}$ is studied in an external magnetic field in KSVZ-model where axions have only induced coupling to leptons. The axion lifetime in the field decreases with energy and field strength to seconds.
