Pair Production in Photon-Photon Collisions
Abstract
General formulas for the absorption probability from the process $\ensuremath{\gamma}+{\ensuremath{\gamma}}^{\ensuremath{'}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{e}^{+}+{e}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ are given for high-energy photons traversing isotropic photon gases having various spectra. Asymptotic formulas are derived and general results are given in graphical form for photon spectra having blackbody and power-law form. The results are applied in a following paper to calculate the absorption probability for high-energy photons traversing cosmic distances.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
