Pair production from photon-pulse collisions

Abstract
The high-energy expansion for extended targets developed previously is used to describe the problem of electron pair production by photons, a problem of interest in linear-collider design. The treatment is valid throughout the range of possible parameters, from the classical regime to the extreme quantum domain. The relation between this process and pair production in a constant external field is discussed.
