Integral characteristics of bremsstrahlung and pair photoproduction in a medium

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The bremsstrahlung of an electron and ee+e^{-}e^{+}-pair creation by a photon in a medium is considered in high-energy region, where influence of the multiple scattering on the processes (the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal (LPM) effect) becomes essential. The integral characteristics: the radiation length and the total probability of radiation and pair photoproduction are analyzed under influence of the LPM effect.
