We discuss the theory and phenomenology of pair annihilation, within an ultra-short laser pulse, to a single photon. The signature of this process is the uni-directional emission of single photons with a fixed energy. We show that the cross section is significantly larger than for two-photon pair annihilation in vacuum, with XFEL parameters admitting a much clearer signal than optical beams.

  1. Coherent enhancement of QED cross-sections in electromagnetic backgrounds

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    This paper shows that replacing a photon with a classical laser field can coherently boost QED cross-sections and improve their energy scaling, for example sigma_1->1 ~ (omega/m)^4 versus sigma_2->2 ~ (omega/m)^6.
