SOME EXACT RADIATION SOLUTIONS TO VLASOV'S EQUATIONS

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4208748· OSTI ID:4208748

A class of exact solutions to the Vlasov equations which shows electromagnetic radiation is constructed, and a typical example discussed in some detail. Since velocities larger than c appear to be possibly of importance in these solutions, an exact radiating solution to the relativistic Vlasov equations is constructed, which, though much more specialized than the nonrelativistic solutions, shows that unphysically large velocities in the nonrelativistic solutions are not essential for the radiation there obtained.
