The Induced Charge Generated By The Potential Well In Graphene
The induced charge density, , generated in graphene by the
potential well of the finite radius is considered. The result for
is derived for large distances . We also obtained
the induced charges outside of the radius and inside of this radius
for subcritical and supercritical regimes. The consideration is based on the
convenient representation of the induced charge density via the Green's
function of electron in the field.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figures, version published in Phys.Rev.
High-energy photoproduction cross section close to the end of spectrum
We consider the cross section of electron-positron pair production by a
high-energy photon in a strong Coulomb field close to the end of electron or
positron spectrum. We show that the cross section essentially differs from the
result obtained in the Born approximation as well as form the result which
takes into account the Coulomb corrections under assumption that both electron
and positron are ultrarelativistic. The cross section of bremsstrahlung in a
strong Coulomb field by a high-energy electron is also obtained in the region
where the final electron is not ultrarelativistic.Comment: 20 pages, 4 figure
Screening of Coulomb Impurities in Graphene
We calculate exactly the vacuum polarization charge density in the field of a
subcritical Coulomb impurity, , in graphene. Our analysis is based on
the exact electron Green's function, obtained by using the operator method, and
leads to results that are exact in the parameter , where is
the "fine structure constant" of graphene. Taking into account also
electron-electron interactions in the Hartree approximation, we solve the
problem self-consistently in the subcritical regime, where the impurity has an
effective charge , determined by the localized induced charge. We find
that an impurity with bare charge Z=1 remains subcritical, , for any , while impurities with and higher can become
supercritical at certain values of .Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure
Corrections to the energy levels of a spin-zero particle bound in a strong field
Formulas for the corrections to the energy levels and wave functions of a
spin-zero particle bound in a strong field are derived. General case of the sum
of a Lorentz-scalar potential and zero component of a Lorentz-vector potential
is considered. The forms of the corrections differ essentially from those for
spin-1/2 particles. As an example of application of our results, we evaluated
the electric polarizability of a ground state of a spin-zero particle bound in
a strong Coulomb field.Comment: 7 pages, 1 figur
Angular distributions in decays
The differential decay rates of the processes and
close to the threshold are calculated with
the help of the optical potential. The same calculations are made
for the decays of . We use the potential which has been suggested to
fit the cross sections of scattering together with and
six pion production in annihilation close to the
threshold. The invariant mass spectra is in agreement with the
available experimental data. The anisotropy of the angular distributions, which
appears due to the tensor forces in the interaction, is predicted
close to the threshold. This anisotropy is large enough to be
investigated experimentally. Such measurements would allow one to check the
accuracy of the model of interaction.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figure
