Abstract

The effect of radiation damping in an anharmonic oscillator has been calculated using the technique of Kryloff and Bogolituboff. It is found that the intensity distribution of the emitted spectral line is asymmetric about its intensity maximum. The index of asymmetry agree with the experimental data on x-rayK a 1,2lines.
