One-photon pair-annihilation in pulsed plane-wave backgrounds
S. Tang, A. Ilderton, B. King
We study the process of electron-positron pair annihilation to a single photon in a plane-wave background. The probability of the process in a pulsed plane wave is…
Letter of Intent for the LUXE Experiment
H. Abramowicz, M. Altarelli, R. Aßmann +34
This Letter of Intent describes LUXE (Laser Und XFEL Experiment), an experiment that aims to use the high-quality and high-energy electron beam of the European XFEL and a powerful…
A uniform locally constant field approximation for photon-seeded pair production
B. King
A challenge to upcoming experiments that plan to collide a particle beam with laser pulses of moderate intensity is how to correctly incorporate quantum effects into simulation fra…
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…
Axion-like-particle decay in strong electromagnetic backgrounds
B. King, B. M. Dillon, K. A. Beyer +1
The decay of a massive pseudoscalar, scalar and U(1) boson into an electron-positron pair in the presence of strong electromagnetic backgrounds is calculated. Of particular interes…
