Relativistic Antihydrogen Production

arXiv:hep-ph/9712461 · doi:10.1007/s100520050271

Abstract

We calculate the production of relativistic antihydrogen atoms by bound-free pair production. The cross section is calculated in the semiclassical approximation (SCA), or equivalently in the plane wave Born approximation (PWBA) using exact Dirac-Coulomb wave functions. We compare our calculations to the equivalent photon approximation (EPA).
