Electrostatic pair creation and recombination in quantum plasmas
PACS: 12.20.-m, 13.40.-f, 52.35.Fp
Abstract
The production of electron-positron pairs by electrostatic waves in quantum plasmas is investigated. In particular, a semi-classical governing set of equations for a self-consistent treatment of pair creation by the Schwinger mechanism in a quantum plasma is derived.
