Description
The process of electron-positron pair production in oscillating electric fields is investigated in the nonperturbative threshold regime.
Similarities between atomic ionization and pair production are pointed out and an effective mass model is introduced.
Accurate numerical solutions of the quantum kinetic theory for various observables are presented and analyzed in terms of the effective mass model.
