Description

In the paper Relativistic Quantum Transport Theory for
Electrodynamics by Zhuang, Heinz et al. a complete set of kinetic
equations for the covariant equal-time formulation of the quantum
kinetic theory is derived. We expand on this theory by computing
numerical solutions for time-dependent electric fields in the Schwinger
approximation. Early results suggest an important role of the feedback
generated by pair creation initiated via stimulation by an external
electric field.
