We present the wave propagation through stratified double negative stacks to illustrate the scattering characteristics of their structure. The double negative stacks are modeled by using the hypothetical non-dispersive and the frequency dispersive cold plasma media. The stacks are embedded between two double positive media and the incident electric field is assumed a plane electromagnetic wave with any arbitrary polarization. By imposing the boundary conditions, the relations between the fields inside and outside the stacks can be written in a matrix form. Using this transfer matrix, the incident, reflected, and transmitted powers are derived. The variations of the powers for the stratified double negative stacks using the frequency dispersive cold plasma medium have not been investigated yet, in detail. Thus, their characteristics for the perpendicular polarization is computed and presented in numerical results with the emphasis on the plasma frequencies. It is seen from the numerical results that the stratified double negative stacks can be used as electromagnetic filters at some frequency bands.

We study the problem of pair creation of scalar particles by an electric field in curved Snyder space. We find exact solutions for the Klein–Gordon equation with a constant electric field in terms of hypergeometric functions. Then we calculate the pair creation probability and the number of created pairs of particles through Bogoliubov transformation technique.

In this paper, we present in detail consistent QED (and scalar QED) calculations of particle creation effects in external electromagnetic field that correspond to three most important exactly solvable cases of t-electric potential steps: Sauter-like electric field, T-constant electric field, and exponentially growing and decaying electric fields. In all these cases, we succeeded to obtain new results, such as calculations in the modified configurations of the above-mentioned steps and detailed considerations of new limiting cases in already studied steps. As was recently discovered by us, the information derived from considerations of exactly solvable cases allows one to make some general conclusions about quantum effects in fields for which no closed form solutions of the Dirac (or Klein–Gordon) equation are known. In the present paper, we briefly represent such conclusions about universal behavior of vacuum mean values in slowly varying strong electric fields.

The separation of variables for the Klein–Gordon and Dirac equations, in the presence of electromagnetic fields, for a class of curvilinear coordinate systems with a null coordinate is presented. We show that these coordinates can be associated with a system with constant acceleration. Exact solutions for the free case and for a particle in a constant electric field are obtained. Finally, the quantum distribution of scalar massless particles in the accelerated frame of reference is computed.

In this study, we have calculated the electric field strength, Ey, of a plane electromagnetic wave with frequency, ?, propagation along z-axes and the polarized y-axes in 1-D by using Wentzel, Kramers, and Brillouin method for both with and without collision conditions in ionospheric F-region with regard to seasonal and local time. Also, the refractive index of ordinary wave and attenuation factor was computed for collision and collision-free conditions. When the collisions were calculated in the F-region of the ionosphere, it was observed that the electric field strength decreased for all seasons and Ey increased between 275-400 km altitudes encountering approximately hmF2 ?the peak of F2? for the accepted conditions.
