Dynamically assisted Sauter-Schwinger effect — non-perturbative versus perturbative aspects
Abstract The Sauter-Schwinger effect predicts the creation of electron-positron pairs out of the quantum vacuum by a strong and slowly varying electric field. This effect can be dynamically assisted by an additional weaker time-dependent field, which may drastically enhance the pair-creation probabi...
