abstract = {The focus of these lectures is on the quantum vacuum
subjected to classical electromagnetic fields. To this end
we explicitly derive the renowned Heisenberg-Euler effective
action in constant electromagnetic fields in a rather
pedagogical and easy to conceive way. As an application, we
use it to study vacuum birefringence constituting one of the
most promising optical signatures of quantum vacuum
nonlinearity.},
