Analytically and quantitatively, the formation of Electron-Positron pairs in the Electro-Magnetic field of light nuclei has been calculated. In Ultra-Relativistic (UR) areas of incident photon energy, applying the resulting formulas to the energy distribution of the (e<sup>-</sup>, e<sup>+</sup>) operation. When we compare the results, we can observe that the Magnetic field of the target nucleus is more efficacious than the Electric field of the nucleus in the (e<sup>-</sup>, e<sup>+</sup>) operation. Furthermore, we can show that in Pair Production operation, the Differential Cross Section (DCS) owing to the target nucleus’s Electric Quadrupole (EQ) and Magnetic Octupole (MO) are bigger than the Differential Cross Section (DCS) attributable to the target nucleus’s Electric Charge (EC) distribution and Magnetic Dipole (MD).展开更多

The difference of results among polarized fields is obvious for the small chirp. When the chirp parameter increases, the momentum spectra tend to exhibit the multiphoton pair generation that is characterized by the multi-concentric ring structure. The increase of the number density is also remarkable compared to the case of asymmetrical frequency chirp. Note that the dynamically assisted Schwinger mechanism plays an important role for the enhanced pair production in the symmetrical frequency chirp.展开更多

It is verified that this mechanism still holds true for boson pair production. Two combinations of two electric fields having different time scales under various time delays are considered; it is found that the oscillations of the momentum spectrum and the number density of created bosons decrease with increasing time delay, and the latter has a maximum value when the time delay equals zero. Furthermore, the differences in vacuum pair production between bosons and fermions are also studied, and they are helpful for distinguishing the created bosons from fermions.展开更多

We consider three different situations of subcycle, cycle and supercycle laser pulses. It is found that in asymmetric laser pulse field, i.e.. when the pulse length of one rising or falling side is fixed while the pulse length of the other side is changed, the pair production rate and mnnber density can be significantly modified comparable to symmetric situation. For each ca,se of these three different cycle pulses, when one side pulse length is constant and the other side pulse length becomes shorter, i.e., the whole pulse is compressed, the more pairs can be produced than that in tile vice versa case, i.e., the whole pulse is elongated. In compressed pulse case there exists an optimum pulse length ratio of asylnmetric pulse lengths which makes the pair number density maximunn. Moreover, the created maximum pair number density by subcycle pulse is larger than that by cycle or/and supercycle pulse. In elongated pulse case, however, only for supercycle laser pulse the created pairs is enhanced and there exists also an optimum asymmetric pulse length ratio that maximizes the pair number density. On the other hand. surprisingly, in both cases of subcycle and cycle elongated laser pulses, the pair number density is monotonically decreasing as the asymmetry of pulse increases.展开更多

The simpler mapping equation is an approximate treatment of the quantum Vlasov equation in which the continuous external field is regarded as a series of delta kicks. Our study indicates that this new treatment is appropriate because the results of the two methods are in good agreement with each other. However, as the period number increases, interference and a complicated structure in the momentum distribution are observed. Furthermore, we also obtain the square power law relation of the number density to the applied electric field strength.展开更多

In this paper, we study pair production of the EGH boson via gluon fusion at the LHC and find that the resonant contribution of the heavy scalar is very small and the SM-like triangle diagram contribution is strongly suppressed. The total production cross section mainly comes from the box diagram contribution and its value can be significantly enhanced with respect to the SM prediction.展开更多

In this work, we assume that the next-to-lightest CP-even Higgs boson h2 is the SM-like Higgs boson h, whereas the lightest CP-even Higgs boson h1 is dominantly singlet-like. We discuss the h1h1, h2h2, and h1h2 pair production processes via gluon-gluon fusion at the LHC for an collision energy of 14 TeV, and we consider the cases in which one Higgs boson decays to bb and the other decays to γγ or τ+τ-. We find that, for mh1? 62 GeV, the cross section of the gg→h1h1 process is relatively large and maximally reaches 5400 fb, and the production rate of the h1h1→bbτ+τ-final state can reach 1500 fb, which make the detection of this final state possible for future searches of an integrated luminosity of 300 and 3000 fb-1. This is mainly due to the contributions from the resonant production process pp→h2→h1h1 and the relatively large branching ratio of h1→bb and h1→τ+τ-. The cross sections of the pp→h2h2 and pp→h1h2 production processes maximally reach 28 fb and 133 fb, respectively.展开更多

Nobody has fully explained this yet. By examining the electromagnetic wave nature of the electron, it is possible to show a simple reason why its bare g-factor must be 2, without resorting to superluminal velocities or dismissing it as mystically intrinsic. A simple charged electromagnetic wave loop (CEWL) model of the electron that maintains the same electromagnetic wave nature as the high-energy photons from which electron-positron pairs form, will have exactly half of its energy in the form of magnetic energy who’s field lines are perpendicular to the direction of the charge rotation, which leads to the conclusion that only half of the electron’s electromagnetic mass is rotational mass, from which it is easy to calculate a bare g-factor of 2 using Feynman’s equation for the electron’s g-factor.展开更多

Kshana or moment is a very small quanta of time defined by Maharishi Vyasa. It is the time taken by an elementary particle to change the direction from east to north. It is found that the value of a kshana in the case of pair production is approximately 2 × 10<sup>-21</sup> sec, and the radius of the spinning electron or positron is equal to the reduced Compton wavelength. The mass of the electron is equal to the codata recommended value of electron mass and time required in pair production is about four kshanas equal to spinning period of an electron. During validation, in case of the photoelectric effect, spectral series of hydrogen atoms, Compton scattering, and the statistical concept of motion of electron, the value of the number of kshanas in a second is the same as that found in pair production.展开更多

In classical physics, it gains in the energy of motion. In relativity that kinetic energy makes itself felt as additional mass. As the object reaches the speed of light, theoretically, its mass becomes “infinite”. Nevertheless, the concept of “infinite mass” is still a subject we know little about. In the following paper, I will be focusing on how and why such phenomena take place. Furthermore, we shall discuss antimatter. Antimatter is now known to shower down from the sky above us, and when a particle meets its antiparticle, both of them disappear in a burst of radiant energy, exactly in accordance with E = mc<sup>2</sup> .展开更多

文摘By solving the quantum Vlasov equation, electron positron pair production in a strong electric field with asymmetric laser pulses has been investigated. We consider three different situations of subcycle, cycle and supercycle laser pulses. It is found that in asymmetric laser pulse field, i.e.. when the pulse length of one rising or falling side is fixed while the pulse length of the other side is changed, the pair production rate and mnnber density can be significantly modified comparable to symmetric situation. For each ca,se of these three different cycle pulses, when one side pulse length is constant and the other side pulse length becomes shorter, i.e., the whole pulse is compressed, the more pairs can be produced than that in tile vice versa case, i.e., the whole pulse is elongated. In compressed pulse case there exists an optimum pulse length ratio of asylnmetric pulse lengths which makes the pair number density maximunn. Moreover, the created maximum pair number density by subcycle pulse is larger than that by cycle or/and supercycle pulse. In elongated pulse case, however, only for supercycle laser pulse the created pairs is enhanced and there exists also an optimum asymmetric pulse length ratio that maximizes the pair number density. On the other hand. surprisingly, in both cases of subcycle and cycle elongated laser pulses, the pair number density is monotonically decreasing as the asymmetry of pulse increases.
文摘Electron-positron pair creation is studied in the low-density approximation by solving the quantum Vlasov equation exactly and the mapping equation approximately. The simpler mapping equation is an approximate treatment of the quantum Vlasov equation in which the continuous external field is regarded as a series of delta kicks. Our study indicates that this new treatment is appropriate because the results of the two methods are in good agreement with each other. However, as the period number increases, interference and a complicated structure in the momentum distribution are observed. Furthermore, we also obtain the square power law relation of the number density to the applied electric field strength.

It is found that the value of a kshana in the case of pair production is approximately 2 × 10<sup>-21</sup> sec, and the radius of the spinning electron or positron is equal to the reduced Compton wavelength. The mass of the electron is equal to the codata recommended value of electron mass and time required in pair production is about four kshanas equal to spinning period of an electron. During validation, in case of the photoelectric effect, spectral series of hydrogen atoms, Compton scattering, and the statistical concept of motion of electron, the value of the number of kshanas in a second is the same as that found in pair production.
文摘The aim of this theory is to study and explain the phenomena that have been predicted by Einstein in the year 1905 which affirms that the mass of a body increases with velocity;the mass of a body increases when it travels at high speed. In classical physics, it gains in the energy of motion. In relativity that kinetic energy makes itself felt as additional mass. As the object reaches the speed of light, theoretically, its mass becomes “infinite”. Nevertheless, the concept of “infinite mass” is still a subject we know little about. In the following paper, I will be focusing on how and why such phenomena take place. Furthermore, we shall discuss antimatter. Antimatter is now known to shower down from the sky above us, and when a particle meets its antiparticle, both of them disappear in a burst of radiant energy, exactly in accordance with E = mc<sup>2</sup> .

文摘By applying the Error PDF Updating Method,we analyze the impact of the absolute and normalized single differential cross-sections for top-quark pair production data from the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider,at a center-of-mass energy of √s=8TeV,on the CT14HERA2 PDFs.We find that the top quark pair single differential distributions provide minor constraints on the CT14HERA2 gluon PDF when the nominal CT14HERA2 inclusive jet production data are included in the fit.Larger constraints on the gluon distribution are present when the jet data are removed(CT14HERA2mJ)and/or when increased weights are given to the top data in the CT14HERA2 fits.The weighted$t\bar t$data provide significant constraints on the CT14HERA2mJ gluon PDF,which are comparable to those obtained from inclusive jet production data.Furthermore,we examine the top quark mass sensitivity of the top-quark pair single differential distributions.
文摘Numerical estimates for electrons and mesons particle–antiparticle creation from vacuum in the presence of strong electromagnetic fields are derived, using the complete probability density relation of Popov's imaginary time method(Popov, JETP Lett. 13, 185(1971); Sov. Phys. JETP 34, 709(1972); Sov. Phys. JETP 35, 659(1972); Popov and Marinov, Sov. J. Nucl. Phys. 16, 449(1973); JETP Lett. 18, 255(1974); Sov. J. Nucl. Phys. 19, 584(1974));(Popov,Phys. Let. A 298, 83(2002)), and within the framework of an experimental setup like the E144(Burke et al., Phys. Rev.Lett. 79, 1626(1997)). The existence of crossing point among pair creation efficiency curves of different photon energies and the role of odd/even multiphoton orders in the production rates are discussed. Finally a kind of tunability process between the two creation processes is discussed.
文摘Using the minimal extension of the standard model and considering the charge radius and the anapole moments of a neutrino,we derive analytical expressions for the stellar energy loss rates associated with the production of a neutrino pair e+γ→ve+ve νein hot plasma under three limiting regimes(nondegenerate,intermediate,and degenerate electrons)of the temperature,electron chemical potential,and plasma energy.The obtained results reveal the presence of an extra contribution of approximately 10%based on the considered calculations.

文摘Based on the recent precise measurements by the BESIII collaboration for electron–positron annihilation into a neutron and antineutron pair,the effective form factors of the neutron were determined in the time-like region,and it was found that the effective form factors of the neutron are smaller than those of the proton.The effective form factors of the neutron show a periodic behaviour,similar to those of the proton.Here,a comparative analysis forΛ,∑^(0)and■hyperons is performed.Fits of the available data on the effective form factors ofΛ,∑^(0)and■with zero charge show an interesting phenomenon in the oscillating behavior of their effective form factors.However,this will need to be confirmed by future precise experiments.Both theoretical and experimental investigations of this phenomenon can shed light on the reaction mechanisms of the electron–positron annihilation processes.
