A closer look at the electromagnetic signatures of Bethe-Heitler pair production process in blazars
Despina Karavola, Maria Petropoulou
The ''twin birth'' of a positron and an electron by a photon in the presence of a nucleus, known as Bethe-Heitler pair production, is a key process in astroparticle physics. The Be…
