MP 6: Nonperturbative QFT and Strong Fields
MP 6.4: Talk
Wednesday, March 21, 2018, 15:10–15:30, Z6 - SR 1.012
Nonperturbative QFT and the unstable quantum vacuum — •Ibrahim Akal1 and Gudrid Moortgat-Pick2 — 1DESY, Hamburg, Germany — 2University of Hamburg, Hamburg, Germany
In this talk, we will discuss vacuum instability in the presence of strong background gauge fields. More precisely, we will focus on certain nonperturbative techniques in QFT which are particularly advantageous in dealing with highly inhomogeneous backgrounds. Some explicit examples will be presented.
