dc.descriptionA second quantised theory of electrons and positrons in a deep time-dependent potential well is discussed. It is shown that positron production from the well is a natural consequence of Dirac's hole theory when the strength of the well becomes supercritical. A formalism is developed whereby the amplitude for emission of a positron of a given momentum can be calculated. The difference between positron production and electron-positron pair production is demonstrated. Considerations of the vacuum charge and of Levinson's theorem are required for a full description of the problem.
