Abstract :
The process of electron positron pair production by an electron in a magnetic field has been studied in the lowest Landau levels (LLL) approximation. The process is most probable if the initial electron and the positron spins oriented along the field while the spins of the final electrons are oriented against the field. The process rate has been calculated for the indicated spin projections.
