Light-matter interaction close to Schwinger’s critical threshold
What happens when the amplitude of a light field approaches the Schwinger critical field of 1018 V/m, or an energy of 1029 W/cm2, which is the threshold for generating an electron-positron pair in a vacuum? Close to this limit, Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) – the theory of light-matter interaction – predicts that a beam of light…
