Abstract

As a result of investigations into the spatial structure of the wave zone of radiation for an arbitrary moving charge it is established that this zone has spherical symmetry in the specific case of hyperbolic motion. This easily explains the well-known paradox of the absence of the radiation damping force in this case.
