Upcoming and planned experiments combining increasingly intense lasers and energetic
particle beams will access new regimes of nonlinear, relativistic, quantum effects. This …

Particle physics today faces the challenge of explaining the mystery of dark matter, the origin
of matter over anti-matter in the Universe, the origin of the neutrino masses, the apparent …

Abstract In 1933‐1934 Born and Infeld constructed the first non‐linear generalization of
Maxwell's electrodynamics that turned out to be a remarkable theory in many respects. In …

All nonlinear extensions of the source-free Maxwell equations preserving both SO (2)
electromagnetic duality invariance and conformal invariance are found, and shown to be …

We provide a pedagogical review article on fundamentals and applications of the quantum
dynamics in strong electromagnetic fields in QED and QCD. The fundamentals include the …

Stellar cooling arguments place strict restrictions on a wide variety of models of new physics.
In this paper, we argue that mechanisms to evade these constraints are restricted by …

A bstract We bound EFT coefficients appearing in 2→ 2 photon scattering amplitudes in four
dimensions. After reviewing unitarity and positivity conditions in this context, we use …

Ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions are expected to produce the strongest electromagnetic
fields in the known Universe. These highly-Lorentz contracted fields can manifest …

We consider couplings of electrically and magnetically charged sources to the maximally
symmetric nonlinear extension of Maxwell's theory called ModMax. The aim is to reveal …
