dc.descriptionUsing the Schwinger-Keldysh (closed time path or CTP) and Feynman-Vernon influence functional formalisms we obtain a Langevin equation for the description of the charged particle creation in electric field and of backreaction of charged quantum fields and their fluctuations on time evolution of this electric field. We obtain an expression for the influence functional in terms of Bogoliubov coefficients for the case of quantum electrodynamics with spin 0 charged particles. Then we derive a CTP effective action in semiclassical approximation and its cumulant expansion. An intimate connection between CTP effective action and decoherence functional will allow us to analyze how macroscopic electromagnetic fields are ``measured'' through interaction with charges and thereby rendered classical.
