The cross section of bremsstrahlung from high-energy electron suppressed due to the multiple scattering of an emitting electron in a dense media (the LPM effect) is discussed. Development of the LPM effect theory is outlined. For the target of finite thickness one has to include boundary photon radiation as well as the interference effects. The importance of multiphoton effects is emphasized. Comparison of theory with SLAC data is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
