Electromagnetic and gravitational synchrotron radiation

  • Published:
Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

A brief survey of the theory of synchrotron radiation (SR) is presented, with particular attention to quantum effects in the SR spectrum. The inaccuracy of the recent paper by Latal and Erber, considering quantum corrections to the classical SR spectrum, is pointed out. Some mechanisms of generation of gravitational radiation arealso discussed: gravitational SR, creation of gravitons in annihilation processes, and plasma generation of gravitational waves.
