Schwinger pair production and the extended uncertainty principle: can heuristic derivations be trusted?
Abstract The rate of Schwinger pair production due to an external electric field can be derived heuristically from the uncertainty principle. In the presence of a cosmological constant, it has been argued in the literature that the uncertainty principle receives a correction due to the background cu...
