Abstract

The creation of scalar particle pairs due to the decay of a highly energetic gamma quantum traveling in a laser field comprising two independent modes is considered. Employing the framework of strong-field scalar QED, detailed calculations aiming at two different aspects of the process are presented. We first investigate interference effects between reaction channels with absorption of different numbers of laser photons with commensurate frequency and demonstrate the possibility of coherent phase control. Then we study numerically a scheme of dynamical assistance, which offers prospects for an experimental realization of a Schwinger-like pair production process.
