Radiation spectrum of an electron moving in a spiralin medium

Abstract

The action of the Doppler effect on the particularities of radiation power spectral distribution of an electron moving in a spiral in a medium has been investigated near the Cherenkov threshold. The fine structure of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum at the Cherenkov threshold and the synchrotron-Cherenkov radiation spectrum for an electron moving along a spiral with non-relativistic longitudinal component of the velocity (i.e., the component parallel to the magnetic induction vector) in a transparent isotropic medium have been obtained and studied.
