Exact results for scattering on ultra-short plane wave backgrounds
Anton Ilderton
We give exact results for the emission spectra of both nonlinear Breit-Wheeler pair production and nonlinear Compton scattering in ultra-intense, ultra-short duration plane wave ba…

Absorption cross section in an intense plane wave background
Anton Ilderton, Ben King, Alexander John Macleod
We consider the absorption of probe photons by electrons in the presence of an intense, pulsed, background field. Our analysis reveals an interplay between regularisation and gauge…

Note on the conjectured breakdown of QED perturbation theory in strong fields
A. Ilderton
Strong background fields require a non-perturbative treatment, which is afforded in QED by the Furry expansion of scattering amplitudes. It has been conjectured that this expansion…
