Abstract

Nonresonant electron-positron pair photoproduction on a nucleus in the field of two pulsed light waves is studied theoretically. The process is considered in detail within the interference kinematic region, when stimulated absorption and emission of photons of external pulsed waves by an electron and a positron occurs in a correlated manner. Within this region, a correspondence between the emission angle and energy of the produced particles appears. The distribution of the obtained differential cross section over the pair kinetic energy is characterized by presence of oscillations, within the interference region. Each of the maxima corresponds to the definite partial process with emission and absorption of an equal number of photons of both waves. It was shown that the differential cross section within the interference region for certain values of the pair energy may exceed the cross section in other scattering kinematics in two orders of the magnitude. Obtained results may be experimentally verified, for example, by scientific facilities at sources of pulsed laser radiation (SLAC, FAIR, ELI, XCELS).
