A Fedotov, A Ilderton, F Karbstein, B King, D Seipt… - Physics Reports, 2023 - Elsevier
Upcoming and planned experiments combining increasingly intense lasers and energetic
particle beams will access new regimes of nonlinear, relativistic, quantum effects. This …

Extreme matter in electromagnetic fields and rotation

K Fukushima - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2019 - Elsevier
We look over recent developments on our understanding about relativistic matter under
external electromagnetic fields and mechanical rotation. I review various calculational …

Recent progresses on QCD phases in a strong magnetic field: views from Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model

G Cao - The European Physical Journal A, 2021 - Springer
In this review, we summarize recent progress on the possible phases of quantum
chromodynamics (QCD) in the presence of a strong magnetic field, mainly from the views of …

Franz-Keldysh effect in strong-field QED

H Taya - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
We studied a QED analog of the Franz-Keldysh effect, and the interplay between the
nonperturbative (the Schwinger mechanism) and the perturbative particle production …

Dynamically assisted Schwinger mechanism in spatially separated electric fields

Y Ren, C Luo, I Sitiwaldi - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
We investigate the Schwinger pair production in combined electric fields using quantum field
theoretical simulations, where static and oscillating electric fields are finitely extended and …

Dynamically assisted Schwinger mechanism and chirality production in parallel electromagnetic field

H Taya - Physical Review Research, 2020 - APS
We study particle and chirality production from the vacuum in the presence of a slow strong
parallel electromagnetic field superimposed by a fast weak perturbative electromagnetic …

Doubly assisted Sauter-Schwinger effect

G Torgrimsson, J Oertel, R Schützhold - Physical Review D, 2016 - APS
We study electron-positron pair creation by a strong and slowly varying electric field,
assisted by a weaker and more rapidly changing field (eg, in the keV regime) plus an …

Chiral anomaly in a (1+ 1)-dimensional Floquet system under high-frequency electric fields

K Fukushima, Y Hidaka, T Shimazaki, H Taya - Annals of Physics, 2023 - Elsevier
We investigate the chiral anomaly in a Floquet system under a time-periodic electric field in
(1+ 1) dimensions. Using the van Vleck high-frequency expansion, we analytically calculate …

Signatures of the Schwinger mechanism assisted by a fast-oscillating electric field

S Villalba-Chávez, C Müller - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
The spontaneous production of electron-positron pairs from the vacuum—in a field
configuration composed of a high-frequency electric mode of weak intensity and a strong …

[HTML][HTML] Underestimated Schwinger threshold in dimension-reduced approach

C Luo, Y Ren, I Sitiwaldi - Results in Physics, 2023 - Elsevier
We perform a large scale of quantum field theoretical simulations in 1+ 1 spacetime, to
examine the Schwinger threshold in a spatially finite-extended electric field. We get a …
