Computational quantum field theory for fermion pair creation in 2-dimensional curved spacetimes

Mohammed Alkhateeb, James P. Edwards, Yves Caudano

Similarly to the well-known phenomenon of particle / anti-particle pair production in strong electromagnetic fields (the Schwinger effect), the naïve matter field vacuum state can…

Microcausality and Tunneling Times in Relativistic Quantum Field Theory

Mohammed Alkhateeb, Alex Matzkin

We show, in the framework of a space-time resolved relativistic quantum field theory approach to tunneling, that microcausality precludes superluminal tunneling dynamics. More spec…

Relativistic Quantum Field Theory Approach to Wavepacket Tunneling: Lack of Superluminal Transmission

M. Alkhateeb, X. Gutierrez de la Cal, M. Pons +2

We investigate relativistic wavepacket dynamics for an electron tunneling through a potential barrier employing space-time resolved solutions to relativistic quantum field theory (…

Evolution of strictly localized states in non-interacting quantum field theories with background fields

M. Alkhateeb, A. Matzkin

We investigate the construction of spin-1/2 fermionic and spin-0 bosonic wave-packets having compact spatial support in the framework of a computational quantum field theory (QFT)…

Relativistic Bohmian trajectories and Klein-Gordon currents for spin-0 particles

M. Alkhateeb, A. Matzkin

It is generally believed that the de Broglie-Bohm model does not admit a particle interpretation for massive relativistic spin-0 particles, on the basis that particle trajectories…

Space-time resolved quantum field approach to Klein tunneling dynamics across a finite barrier

M. Alkhateeb, A. Matzkin

We investigate Klein tunneling through finite potential barriers with space-time resolved solutions to relativistic quantum field equations. We find that no particle actually tunne…
