Magneto-photoelectric effect in graphene via tailored potential landscapes

Joris Josiek, Friedemann Queisser, Stephan Winnerl +1

We consider the propagation of charge carriers in planar graphene under the combined influence of a constant transversal magnetic field and an in-plane varying electric potenti…

Ultra-cold atoms as quantum simulators for relativistic phenomena

Ralf Schützhold

The goal of this article is to review developments regarding the use of ultra-cold atoms as quantum simulators. Special emphasis is placed on relativistic quantum phenomena, which…

Space-time toy model for Hawking radiation

Ralf Schützhold, William G. Unruh

By gluing together two sections of flat space-time in different metric representations (with the Minkowski metric representing the region far away from the black hole and the Rindl…

Letter of Intent: Towards a Vacuum Birefringence Experiment at the Helmholtz International Beamline for Extreme Fields

N. Ahmadiniaz, C. Bähtz, A. Benediktovitch +49

Quantum field theory predicts a nonlinear response of the vacuum to strong electromagnetic fields of macroscopic extent. This fundamental tenet has remained experimentally challeng…

Search for axion resonances in vacuum birefringence with three-beam collisions

Stefan Evans, Ralf Schützhold

We consider birefringent (i.e., polarization changing) scattering of x-ray photons at the superposition of two optical laser beams of ultra-high intensity and study the resonant co…

Field-assisted birefringent Compton scattering

N. Ahmadiniaz, T. E. Cowan, M. Ding +4

Motivated by experimental initiatives such as the Helmholtz International Beamline for Extreme Fields (HIBEF), we study Compton scattering of x-rays at electrons in a strong extern…
