This paper presents the derivation of Schwinger's gauge-invariant result of Im ℒ eff up to one loop approximation, for particle production in an uniform electric field through the method of complex trajectory WKB approximation (CWKB). The CWKB proposed by one of the authors1 looks upon particle production as being due to the motion of a particle in complex space–time plane, thereby requiring tunneling paths both in space and time. Recently2,3 there have been some efforts to calculate the reflection and the transmission coefficients for particle production in an uniform electric field that differ from our expressions for the same. In this paper we clarify the confusion in this regard and establish the correctness of CWKB.

In this paper we study the Landau levels arising within the relativistic dynamics of a neutral particle which possesses a permanent magnetic dipole moment interacting with an external electric field in the curved space–time background with the presence of a torsion field. We use the Aharonov–Casher effect to couple this neutral particle with the electric field in this curved background. The eigenfunction and eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian are obtained. We show that the presence of the topological defect breaks the infinite degeneracy of the relativistic Landau levels arising in this system. We study the nonrelativistic limit of the eigenvalues and compare these results with cases studied earlier.

Studying the electrodynamics of proton and electron fluids in cores of compact stars, we find oscillations of electron density and electric field around their equilibrium configurations, provided cores undergo a pulsation or trigger of gravitational collapse. These field and density oscillations can possibly lead to observable electromagnetic radiation.
