Dynamically-assisted nonlinear Breit-Wheeler pair production in bichromatic laser fields of circular polarization
N. Mahlin, S. Villalba-Chávez, C. Müller
Production of electron-positron pairs by a high-energy photon and a bichromatic laser wave is considered where the latter is composed of a strong low-frequency and a weak high-…
Polarization-operator approach to optical signatures of axion-like particles in strong laser pulses
Selym Villalba-Chávez, Tobias Podszus, Carsten Müller
Hypothetical oscillations of probe photons into axion-like particles might be revealed by exploiting the strong fields of high-intensity laser pulses. Considering an arbitrary plan…
Minicharged particles search by strong laser pulse-induced vacuum polarization effects
Selym Villalba-Chávez, Sebastian Meuren, Carsten Müller
Laser-based searches of the yet unobserved vacuum birefringence might be sensitive for very light hypothetical particles carrying a tiny fraction of the electron charge. We show th…
Strong-Field Breit-Wheeler Pair Production in Short Laser Pulses: Identifying Multiphoton Interference and Carrier-Envelope-Phase Effects
Martin J. A. Jansen, Carsten Müller
The creation of electron-positron pairs by the strong-field Breit-Wheeler process in intense short laser pulses is investigated in the framework of laser-dressed quantum electrodyn…
Light dark matter candidates in intense laser pulses II: the relevance of the spin degrees of freedom
Selym Villalba-Chávez, Carsten Müller
Optical searches assisted by the field of a laser pulse might allow for exploring a variety of not yet detected dark matter candidates such as hidden-photons and scalar minicharged…
Light dark matter candidates in intense laser pulses I: paraphotons and fermionic minicharged particles
Selym Villalba-Chávez, Carsten Müller
Polarimetric experiments driven by the strong field of a circularly polarized laser wave can become a powerful tool to limit the parameter space of not yet detected hidden-photons…
Particle Production Reactions in Laser-Boosted Lepton Collisions
Sarah J. Müller, Christoph H. Keitel, Carsten Müller
The need for ever higher energies in lepton colliders gives rise to the investigation of new accelerator schemes for elementary particle physics experiments. One perceivable way to…
Strongly enhanced pair production in combined high- and low-frequency laser fields
Martin J. A. Jansen, Carsten Müller
Production of particle-antiparticle pairs by a high-energy probe photon propagating through a high-intensity laser field is considered in the nonperturbative interaction regime. Th…
Spin effects in strong-field laser-electron interactions
S. Ahrens, T. O. Müller, S. Villalba-Chávez +2
The electron spin degree of freedom can play a significant role in relativistic scattering processes involving intense laser fields. In this contribution we discuss the influence o…
Searching for minicharged particles via birefringence, dichroism and Raman spectroscopy of the vacuum polarized by a high-intensity laser wave
S. Villalba-Chávez, C. Müller
Absorption and dispersion of probe photons in the field of a high-intensity circularly polarized laser wave are investigated. The optical theorem is applied for determining the abs…
