Spectral distributions of Vavilov–Čerenkov radiation of relativistic heavy ions with allowance for their slowing-down in a radiator

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

It is shown that taking account of slowing-down of relativistic heavy ions in a solid-state radiator leads to the appearance of a diffraction-like structure in the spectral distributions of Vavilov–Čerenkov radiation with width proportional to the stopping power and thickness of the radiator.
