We present our calculations of the quantum electrodynamical (QED)
corrections to the radiative electron capture in heavy highly
charged ions. Formulae for all corrections of order α
were derived in the framework of the two-time Green function method,
and the calculations were carried out employing
propagators for electrons in the Coulomb field of the nucleus [1].
Therefore the calculations are fully relativistically and consider
the binding to all orders. Results for the differential cross sections
are presented which amount up to 1 % for uranium projectiles with an
energy
higher than 1 GeV/u. As a next step, we are going to investigate the
pair production related to this process.
The work is supported by the DFG (Grants No. 436 RUS 113/479 and 113/616),
the RFBR (Grant No. 98-02004111), by GSI, and by the EU-TMR programme
(ERB FMRX CT 97-0144).
