Interference Effects in Electron-Positron Pair Creation by the Interaction of a Bichromatic Laser Field and a Nucleus — •Sven Augustin and Carsten Müller — Heinrich-Heine Universität, Düsseldorf

We investigate quantum interferences in electron-positron pair creation in the collision of a relativistic nuclear beam and an intense laser pulse.

In particular, we consider a laser field consisting of two modes with commensurate frequencies. In this situation, quantum path interference may arise which can lead to an increase or a decrease of the total pair production rate. The interference is also visible in angular differential rates which are discussed both in the nuclear rest frame and the laboratory frame.
