Abstract
Radiation from 0–900 MeV electrons in thin amorphous films is investigated experimentally in the photon energy range 20–700 keV. The Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal suppression of the soft part of the bremsstrahlung spectrum and the Ter-Mikaélyan density effect are detected. Coherent bremsstrahlung on macroscopic inhomogeneities in the target material is observed.
