Abstract
In this monograph we consider a broad range of phenomena which appear in the process of bremsstrahlung (BrS) due to many-particle internal dynamic of the colliding particles.

See [222] for a comparative analysis of similarities and differences between collective excitations in various systems, as well as for the historical survey.

It should be noted that the position disorder of the particles in medium is not a sufficient condition for the absence of coherent radiation. For example, a charged particle propagation in a dielectric amorphous medium with the speed exceeding the phase velocity of light in the medium gives rise to the coherent Vavilov-Cherenkov radiation (see [90] for a historical survey and the bibliography).
