摘要
The multiphoton electron-positron pair production through nonlinear channels by superintense opposed laser pulses of the same frequencies in vacuum is considered. On the basis of the Dirac model the resonance approximation for vacuum induced transitions is developed. The analytic formulas for energetic and angular distributions and total number of created particles in the limit of a short interaction time are obtained.
