Vacuum instability in external fields
Open accessAbstract
We study particle creation from the vacuum by external electric fields, in particular, by fields, which are acting for a finite time, in the frame of QED in arbitrary space-time dimensions. In all the cases special sets of exact solutions of the Dirac equation (in and out solutions) are constructed. Using them, the characteristics of the effect are calculated. The time and dimensional analyses of the vacuum instability are presented. It is shown that the distributions of particles created by quasiconstant electric fields can be written in a form which has a thermal character and which seems to be universal, i.e., is valid for any theory with quasiconstant external fields. Its application, for example, to particle creation in an external constant gravitational field reproduces the Hawking temperature exactly. \textcopyright{} 1996 The American Physical Society.

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.
