Abstract

We consider the linear polarization of synchrotron radiation emitted by a charge which is uniformly distributed over a sphere and with intrinsic rotation. The charge rotates about an axis along the instantaneous direction of the velocity vector β with a frequency proportional to the frequency of revolution along its orbit. The nonrelativistic and ultrarelativistic limits of the radiation are considered.
