Finally;

1) By using semi-classical two photon method, we have obtained bound-free electron-positron pair production cross section.
2) By using this method, we have calculated impact parameter dependent bound-free electron-positron pair production probability.
3) We have calculated the cross section of bound-free electron-positron pair production accompanied by giant dipole resonance for the first time in the literature.
4) We have obtained the differential cross section of produced positrons as a function of energy, transverse momentum, longitudinal momentum and rapidity for the bound-free electron-positron pair production accompanied by giant dipole resonance.
5) We are planning to implement this method to calculate the cross section of different particles such as mesons, heavy leptons and anti-hydrogen.
