Abstract
We discuss observable effects of the assumption that the strong coupling phase of quantum electrodynamics is realized in the surface region of heavy nuclei with large atomic number Z under a suitable external disturbance. We present some comments on anomalous peaks in electron-positron systems observed in heavy ion reactions and on effects expected in electron and positron scatterings off large-Z nuclei. We propose some experiments to test our assumption: (1) coincidence measurement of e+e− and γγ signals from the decays of large-Z nuclei, and (2) spectroscopy of large-Z muonic atoms.
