Scientific paper

We study plasma oscillations of electrons-positron pairs created by the vacuum polarization in an uniform electric field. Our treatment, encompassing also the case of E>Ec, shows the existence in both cases of a maximum Lorentz factor acquired by electrons and positrons and allows determination of the a maximal length of oscillation. We quantitatively estimate how plasma oscillations reduce the rate of pair creation and increase the time scale of the pair production.
