چکیده

We predict the existence of new nonlinear electromagnetic wave modes in pair plasmas. The plasma may be either non-magnetized or immersed in an external magnetic field. The existence of these modes depends on the interaction of an intense circularly polarized electromagnetic wave with a plasma, where the nonlinear quantum vacuum effects are taken into account. This gives rise to new couplings between matter and radiation. We focus on pair plasmas, since the new modes are expected to exist in highly energetic environments, such as pulsar magnetospheres and the next generation of laser–plasma systems. PACS numbers: 52.27.Fp, 52.35.Mw, 52.38,-r, 52.40.Db

Nonlinear collective effects in photon–photon and photon–plasma interactions

We consider strong-field effects in laboratory and astrophysical plasmas and high intensity laser and cavity systems, related to quantum electrodynamical (QED) photon–photon scattering. Current state-of-the-art laser facilities are close to reaching energy scales at which laboratory astrophysics will become possible. In such high energy density laboratory astrophysical systems, quantum electrod...

Quantum electrodynamical shocks and solitons in astrophysical plasmas

The nonlinear propagation of low-frequency circularly polarized waves in a magnetized dusty plasma is analyzed. It is found that wave steepening and shock formation can take place due to the presence of nonlinear quantum vacuum effects, thus giving rise to ultra-intense electromagnetic shocks. Moreover, it is shown that solitary wave structures are admitted even under moderate astrophysical con...

Quantum, Spin and Qed Effects in Plasmas

Plasmas are usually described using classical equations. While this is often a good approximation, where are situations when a quantum description is motivated. In this paper we will include several quantum effects, ranging from particle dispersion, which give raise to the so called Bohm potential, to spin effects, and to quantum electrodynamical effects. The later effects appears when the fiel...
