Atomic screening and e+e− pair photoproduction at low energies

The effect of screening by atomic electrons on the behavior of electron and positron wave functions in the continuous spectrum at small distances is studied. It is shown that these asymptotics are affected not only by the static potential of atomic electrons, but also by the polarization potential,...
