The kinetic description of vacuum particle creation in the oscillator representation

The oscillator representation is used for the non-perturbative description of vacuum particle creation in a strong time-dependent electric field in the framework of scalar QED. It is shown that the method can be more effective for the derivation of the quantum kinetic equation (KE) in comparison with the Bogoliubov method of time-dependent canonical transformations. This KE is used for the investigation of vacuum creation in periodical linear and circular polarized electric fields and also in the case of the presence of a constant magnetic field, including the back reaction problem. In particular, these examples are applied for a model illustration of some features of vacuum creation of electron-positron plasma within the planned experiments on the X-ray free electron lasers.

Kinetics of Vacuum Pair Creation in Strong Electromagnetic Fields

We study particle - antiparticle pair production under action of a strong time dependent space homogeneous electric field at the presence of a collinear constant magnetic field. We derive the kinetic equation for a such field configuration for fermions and bosons in the framework of the Schwinger mechanism of vacuum tunneling. We show the enhancement of pair production for fermions with the increasing of the magnetic field as in the case of the constant electromagnetic field. We have constructed closed set of equations, which can be applied to some actual problems with manifestation of strong electromagnetic fields, e.g., it is essential in the framework of the Flux Tube Model of Quark - Gluon Plasma generation; for describing some cosmological objects and especially because of the planned experiments on creation of subcritical fields in the X-Free Electron Laser pulses.
