Relativistic effects in polarizational bremsstrahlung

Abstract

We review the achievements of the theory of polarization bremsstrahlung of relativistic particles, including the case when both colliders have internal structure. The main features which the relativistic effects bring into the problem are discussed and illustrated by the results of numerical calculations. ‡ On leave from: Ioffe Physical-Technical Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg 194021, Russia
