Pair production in asymmetric Sauter potential well

Abstract: Electron-positron pair production in asymmetric Sauter potential well is studied, where the potential well has been built as the width of the right edge fixed but the left side of the well is changeable at different values. We study the momentum spectrum, the location distribution and the total pair numbers in this case of asymmetric potential well and compare them with the symmetric case. The relationship between created electron energy, the level energy in the bound states and the photon energy in the symmetric potential well is used to the studied problem for the created electrons in the asymmetric potential well and its validity is confirmed by this approximation. By the location distribution of the electrons we have also shown the reason why the momentum spectrum has an optimization in the asymmetric well compared with the symmetric one.
