RADIATION BY CHARGED PARTICLES PASSING THROUGH AN ELECTRON PLASMA IN AN EXTERNAL MAGNETIC FIELD
Journal Article
·
· Proc. Phys. Soc. (London)
The motion of a charged particle through a low density electron plasma in an external magnetic field is investigated. The interaction of the particle through transverse waves only is considered, and the consequent energy losses are calculated. It is found that the coupling between the longitudinal plasma wave and the transverse electromagnetic wave modifies the nature of radiation emitted by the particle. For a velocity greater than that needed to excite plasma waves in the medium, the particle emits nonCerenkov radiation, as well as Cerenkov radiation. (auth)
