Non-linear Breit-Wheeler pair production in collisions of bremsstrahlung quanta and a tightly focussed laser pulse

Alina Golub, Selym Villalba-Chávez, Carsten Müller

Experimental efforts toward the detection of the nonperturbative strong-field regime of the Breit-Wheeler pair creation process plan to combine incoherent sources of GeV quanta…

Strong-field Breit-Wheeler pair production in

Alina Golub, Selym Villalba-Chávez, Carsten Müller

The Breit-Wheeler pair production process in dimensional spacetime is investigated. In the perturbative regime, non-vanishing rates at the energy threshold are found when odd…

Linear Breit-Wheeler pair production by high-energy bremsstrahlung photons colliding with an intense X-ray laser pulse

Alina Golub, Selym Villalba-Chávez, Hartmut Ruhl +1

A possible setup for the experimental verification of linear Breit-Wheeler pair creation of electrons and positrons in photon-photon collisions is studied theoretically. It combine…

Signatures of the Schwinger mechanism assisted by a fast-oscillating electric field

Selym Villalba-Chávez, Carsten Müller

The spontaneous production of electron-positron pairs from the vacuum--in a field configuration composed of a high-frequency electric mode of weak intensity and a strong constant e…

Criticality and dominance of axion physics in highly magnetized vacuum

Selym Villalba-Chávez, Anatoly E. Shabad, Carsten Müller

In a constant and homogeneous magnetic background, quantum vacuum fluctuations due to axion-like fields can dominate over those associated with the electron-positron fields. Consid…

Axion-modified photon propagator, Coulomb potential and Lamb-shift

Selym Villalba-Chávez, Alina Golub, Carsten Müller

A consistent renormalization of a quantum theory of axion-electrodynamics requires terms beyond the minimal coupling of two photons to a neutral pseudoscalar field. This procedure…
