Complex Worldline Instantons and Quantum Interference in Vacuum Pair Production
Cesim K. Dumlu, Gerald V. Dunne
We describe in detail a physical situation in which instantons are necessarily complex, not just Wick rotations of classical solutions to Euclidean spacetime. These complex instant…

Interference Effects in Schwinger Vacuum Pair Production for Time-Dependent Laser Pulses
Cesim K. Dumlu, Gerald V. Dunne
We present simple new approximate formulas, for both scalar and spinor QED, for the number of particles produced from vacuum by a time dependent electric field, incorporating the i…
