Abstract
Quantum transitions associated with the radiation of an electron in a weakly focusing magnetic field are analyzed, allowing for betatron oscillations. An expression is derived for the intensity of the synchrotron radiation. The effect of the betatron oscillations on the polarization properties of the radiation is examined.
