Astrophysically relevant processes in Lorentz-violating QED
- 1. Inst. for Nuclear Research, Moscow (Russian Federation)
Description
We consider quantum electrodynamics with violation of Lorentz invariance. We calculate the rates of photon decay along with the cross sections of electron-positron pair production on background radiation and in the Coulomb field. The latter process is essential for detection of photon-induced air showers in the atmosphere. The results of this work are written in [1] in detail
