Abstract
Pair creation of scalar particles in a boost-invariant electric field which is confined in the forward light cone is studied. We present the proper-time evolution of momentum distributions of created particles, which preserve the boost invariance of the background field. The two-particle correlation of the created particles is also calculated. We find that long-range rapidity correlations may arise from the Schwinger mechanism in the boost-invariant electric field.
