positron, a muon and an antimuon, or a proton and an antiproton. Pair production often refers specifically to a photon creating an electron–positron pair...

Electron Pair Production may refer to: Cooper pairing of electrons in superconductor Electron-positron pair production Electron-hole pair generation in...

Electron–positron annihilation occurs when an electron ( e− ) and a positron ( e+ , the electron's antiparticle) collide. At low energies, the result of...

the electron. When a positron collides with an electron, annihilation occurs. If this collision occurs at low energies, it results in the production of...

scattering, electron-positron pair production in the nucleus field and electron-positron pair production in the electron field (triplet production). The cross...

a high-energy photon can transform into an electron and a positron by a process called pair production, but only in the presence of a nearby charged...

Richard Feynman in the spring of 1940, is the hypothesis that all electrons and positrons are actually manifestations of a single entity moving backwards...

mechanism, or Schwinger pair production. It is a prediction of quantum electrodynamics (QED) in which electron–positron pairs are spontaneously created...

neutron while releasing a positron and an electron neutrino (νe). Positron emission is mediated by the weak force. The positron is a type of beta particle...

particles, such as an electron colliding with a positron to produce two photons. The total energy and momentum of the initial pair are conserved in the...

The Large Electron–Positron Collider (LEP) was one of the largest particle accelerators ever constructed. It was built at CERN, a multi-national centre...

dome. The spark chamber was used to induce a process called electron-positron pair production as a gamma ray entered the telescope. The calorimeter on the...

Breit–Wheeler process or Breit–Wheeler pair production is a proposed physical process in which a positron–electron pair is created from the collision of two...

antiparticle of the positron is the electron. Some particles, such as the photon, are their own antiparticle. Otherwise, for each pair of antiparticle partners...

that Paul Dirac's introduction of the positron opens the possibility that photons in electron-positron pair production scatter with each other and calculated...

A pair-instability supernova is a type of supernova predicted to occur when pair production, the production of free electrons and positrons in the collision...

nonlinear corrections to the fields and calculated the rate of electron–positron pair production in a strong electric field. The limit is typically reported...

The anomalous gamma-ray behavior was eventually ascribed to electron–positron pair production and annihilation. Although Professor Meitner was recognized...

involves pair production or the decay of the vacuum, which is the spontaneous production of particle-antiparticle pairs (such as electron-positron). Lamb...

followed by explosive oxygen fusion, with very similar results. Electron-positron pair production in a large post-helium burning core removes thermodynamic...
