A corresponding higher order QED calculation is consistent with the data.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-10-25T19:41:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "34.90.+q", "25.75.Dw", "25.20.Lj", "12.20.-m" ], "keywords": [ "pair production", "lowest order qed result", "lowest order qed calculation", "heavy ion nuclei", "corresponding higher order qed calculation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2008, "month": "Feb", "volume": 100, "number": 6, "pages": "062302" }, "note": { "typesetting": "RevTeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 765422, "adsabs": "2008PhRvL.100f2302B" } } }
