The Low Energy Effective Lagrangian for Photon Interactions in Any Dimension
journal contribution
posted on 2023-05-16, 07:36 authored by Ritz, A, Robert DelbourgoRobert DelbourgoThe subject of low energy photon-photon scattering is considered in arbitrary-dimensional space-time and the interaction is widened to include scattering events involving an arbitrary number of photons. The effective interaction Lagrangian for these processes in QED has been determined in a manifestly invariant form. This generalization resolves the structure of the weak field Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian and indicates that the component invariant functions have coefficients related not only to the spacetime dimension but also to the coefficients of the Bernoulli polynomial.
