The Lagrangian Formulation of Strong-Field QED in a Plasma
read the original abstract
The Lagrangian formulation of the scalar and spinor quantum electrodynamics (QED) in the presence of strong laser fields in a plasma medium is considered. We include the plasma influence in the free Lagrangian analogously to the "Furry picture" and obtain coupled equations of motion for the plasma particles and for the laser propagation. We demonstrate that the strong-field wave (i.e. the laser) satisfies a massive dispersion relation and obtain self-consistently the effective mass of the laser photons. The Lagrangian formulation derived in this paper is the basis for the cross sections calculation of quantum processes taking place in the presence of a plasma.

Coherent-field QED transitions based on coherent-state boundary conditions
The fixed-background-field approximation of QED is re-expressed as full QED evaluated between asymptotic photon coherent states, with background time-dependence arising from picture choice rather than an explicitly ti...
