Resonant e + e − pair production by an electron in a magnetic field near the process threshold has been analytically studied. Using the Nikishov's theorem an estimation of the number of events has been made in the magnetic field equivalent to laser wave in the SLAC experiment [D. Burke et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 79, 1626(1997]. The obtained estimation is in reasonable agreement with the experimental data. 13.88.+e
Spin and polarization effects and correlations between them in the processes of pair production by a photon and synchrotron radiation in a magnetic field are considered. Expressions for the probabilities of the processes with arbitrary polarizations of the particles are obtained. These expressions are analyzed in detail in both the Lowest Landau Levels and ultrarelativistic approximations.

In the present work one-and two-photon pair production in a subcritical magnetic field have been considered. Two-photon production has been studied in the resonant case, when the cross section considerably increases compared to the nonresonant case. While one-photon pair production is considered to be the main mechanism of plasma generation in a pulsar magnetosphere, we suggest the existence of another one, which is resonant two-photon production process.Mod.

The process of electron-positron pair production by two photons in a strong magnetic field has been studied. The process kinematics is considered, and the probability amplitude for arbitrary polarizations of particles is found. The resonance conditions are established, and the resonant cross-section is estimated in the case where the electron and the positron occupy the lowest levels (le = 1, lp = 0) that satisfy these resonance conditions.

The subject of the present theoretical and experimental investigations is the effect of the external magnetic field induction on dark current and a possibility of breakdown. The generalization of the Fowler-Nordheim equation makes it possible to take into account the influence of a magnetic field parallel to the cathode surface on the field emission current. The reduction in the breakdown voltage due to the increment in electron-impact ionization was theoretical predicted.Experimentally shown that the presence of a magnetic field about a tenth as a large as the cutoff magnetic field [18] reduces the breakdown voltage by 10% to 20% for practically all cathodes no matter what their surface treatment.
We consider the resonant generation of an electronpositron pair by two polarized photons to arbitrarily low Landau levels. The resonance occurs when the energy of one photon exceeds the one-photon generation threshold, and the energy of the other photon is multiple to the spacing between the levels. The cross section of the process is determined taking into account the spins of particles. The order of magnitude of the cross section is the highest when the magnetic moments of the particles are oriented along the magnetic field.
