Certain models involving ALPs (axion-like-particles) allow for the coupling of scalars and pseudoscalars to fermions. A derivation of the total rate for production of massive scalars and pseudoscalars by an electron in a monochromatic, circularly-polarised electromagnetic background is presented. In addition, a derivation and the total rate for the decay of massive scalars and pseudoscalars into electron-positron pairs in the same electromagnetic background is given. We conclude by approximating the total yield of ALP production for a typical laser-particle experimental scenario.

  1. Searching for long-lived ALPs with a laser-assisted optical dump

    hep-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A laser-assisted optical dump could probe ALP-electron couplings down to ~10^-6 (10^-7) GeV^-1 with 16.5 (125) GeV electron beams, and when both couplings are present the Primakoff process improves the electron-coupli...

  2. Semiclassical analysis of axion-like particle emission via nonlinear Compton-like scattering in intense laser fields

    hep-ph 2025-07 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    A spin-resolved axion emission rate in intense laser fields is derived under the local constant field approximation, showing that axion emission has a different spin dependence from photon emission.

  3. Laser induced Compton Scattering to Dark Matter in Effective Field Theory

    hep-ph 2025-01 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Electrons struck by an intense laser can decay into a light dark matter pair; at LUXE this could probe EFT cutoffs near 1 GeV for dimension-6 operators and 10^3-10^4 GeV for dipole operators with dark matter below 1 MeV.
