Master formulas for photon amplitudes in a combined constant and plane-wave background field

Published 15 Mar 2023 in hep-th, hep-ph, and physics.plasm-ph | (2303.08907v2)

Abstract: The worldline formalism has previously been used for deriving compact master formulas for the QED $N$ - photon amplitudes in vacuum, in a constant field and in a plane-wave field. Here we carry this program one step further by deriving master formulas for the scalar and spinor QED $N$-photon amplitudes in the background of the "parallel" special case of a combined constant and plane-wave field.
