Abstract
The problem of synchrotron radiation from a charged, current-carrying ring is considered. An expression is found for the spectral and angular distribution of radiation intensity including polarization effects. Some special cases of the general formula are examined: a limiting transition to the generalized Schott formula, a formula for the intensity of synchrotron radiation from a magnetic dipole oriented along the tangent to the trajectory, and a transition to the formulas for the intensity of Vavilov-Cherenkov radiation from a charged, current-carrying, annular cloud by taking sums of Bessel functions.
