“…We are going to investigate the ordinary wave case in the birefringence problem, therefore we assume E = (0, 0, E z ) and B = (0, B y , 0), which is the simple case of non-vanishing components E z and B y , in order to investigate the crossed field case E • B = 0 which is the setup we have made in our previous work. Surprisingly, for such a case, the Born-Infeld Lagrangian (2) reduces to the Born Lagrangian (1), therefore the following investigation will be done in the Born theory where the shock waves are being generated thanks to presence of the birefringence effect and moreover we can use the method developed in [28,31] to study them.…”
