Hi

I am looking for a source which covers a differential crossection for pair production of electrons and positrons due to photons.

[tex]\frac{d^2\sigma}{dEd\Omega}[/tex]

I need it to be valid for high relativistic energies of electrons/positrons and for all angels. I can only find formulas which are valid for small opening angels :(

(Rev. Mod. Phys. 41, 581 - 639 (1969) Pair Production by Photons)

Thank you for your time
