Electron-positron pair and photon generation from vacuum in a de Sitter space
Electron-positron pair and photon generation from vacuum is considered for a de Sitter space. The amplitude is calculated in the lowest order of perturbation theory with respect to the radiation interaction. The initial and final vacuum states of the quantized spinor field are taken as those of an adiabatic Bunch-Davis vacuum. The amplitude is shown to be zero, i.e., an adiabatic vacuum in a de Sitter space is stable with respect to radiation.
