Vacuum instability in a constant inhomogeneous electric field. A new example of exact nonperturbative calculations
T. C. Adorno, S. P. Gavrilov, D. M. Gitman
Basic quantum processes (such as particle creation, reflection, and transmission on the corresponding Klein steps) caused by inverse-square electric fields are calculated. These re…
Regularization, renormalization and consistency conditions in QED with x-electric potential steps
S. P. Gavrilov, D. M. Gitman
The present article is an important addition to the nonperturbative formulation of QED with x-steps presented by Gavrilov and Gitman in Phys. Rev. D. 93, 045002 (2016). Here we pro…
Pair production from the vacuum by a weakly inhomogeneous space-dependent electric potential step
S. P. Gavrilov, D. M. Gitman, A. A. Shishmarev
There exists a clear physical motivation for theoretical studies of the vacuum instability related to the production of electron-positron pairs from a vacuum due to strong external…
States of charged quantum fields and their statistical properties in the presence of critical potential steps
S. P. Gavrilov, D. M. Gitman, A. A. Shishmarev
Evolution of charged quantum fields under the action of constant nonuniform electric fields is studied. To this end we construct a special generating functional for density operato…
