Abstract
We rst study the rate and cross section for electron-positron pair creation by rela-
tivistic muon impact on intense laser beams through the process +r! ! 0 +e+ +e.
We then study the rate and cross section for electron-positron pair creation by proton
impact on intense laser beam through the process p + r! ! p0 + e+ + e in the proton
rest frame. The Feynman diagrams the pair creation by relativistic muon and proton
impact on a circularly polarized high frequency laser beam is evaluated with in the frame-
work of laser-dressed quantum electrodynamics employing relativistic Volkov states
