We study the generalization of QED synchrotron radiation to the QCD case with a chromomagnetic field using the Schwinger {\it et al} source method. It is shown that the QED case can be obtained as a special limit. The comparison with the path integral approach of Zakharov has shown consistent results.

We consider the radiation emitted by an ultrarelativistic charged particle moving in a magnetic field, in the presence of an additional Lorentz-violating interaction. In contrast with prior work, we treat a form of Lorentz violation that is represented by a renormalizable operator. Neglecting the radiative reaction force, the particle's trajectory can be determined exactly. The resulting orbit is generally noncircular and does not lie in the place perpendicular to the magnetic field. We do not consider any Lorentz violation in the electromagnetic sector, so the radiation from the accelerated c…
We consider synchrotron-like radiation in QCD by generalizing Schwinger's treatment of quantum synchrotron radiation in QED to the case of a constant chromomagnetic field. We suggest a novel mechanism for {\em jet quenching} in heavy ion collisions, whereby high-$p_t$ partons get depleted through strong (classical) color fields. The latters are encountered in the color glass condensate or in the form of expanding shells of exploding sphalerons. Unlike bremsstrahlung radiation through multiple soft rescattering, synchrotron radiation converts a jet into a wide shower of soft gluons. We estimate…
Photons may evade a synchrotron radiation constraint on quantum gravity by violating the equivalence principle.
We develop a quasiclassical theory of the synchrotron-like gluon radiation. Our calculations show that the parton energy loss due to the synchrotron gluon emission may be important in the jet quenching phenomenon if the plasma instabilities generate a sufficiently strong chromomagnetic field. Our gluon spectrum disagrees with that obtained by Shuryak and Zahed within the Schwinger's proper time method.
We study the massless limit in synchrotron radiation and one-photon pair creation in magnetic field. In this limit Schwinger critical field $H_0=m^2c^3/(e\hbar)$ tends to zero, so two characteristic quantum parameters $η=H/H_0,\;χ=ηE/mc^2$ are infinite, and the standard approximations used in analytical calculations fail. Applying Schwinger's proper time methods we derive simple expressions for synchrotron radiation spectra emitted by massless charges of spins $s=0,\,1/2$ and the pair creation probability distribution in the quasiclassical (high Landau levels) regime exhibiting simple scaling …
Classical electrodynamics in flat 3+1 space-time has a very special retarded propagator delta(x^2) localized on the light cone, so that a particle does not interact with its past field. However, this is an exception, and in flat odd-dimensional space-times as well as generic curved spaces this is not so. In this work we show that the so called self-force is not only non-zero, but it matches (in 2+1 dimensions) the radiation reaction force derived from the radiation intensity.
Electron and positron beams in storage-rings self-polarize by emitting spin-flipping synchrotron radiation. If new ultralight particles couple to $e^\pm$, their emission in synchrotron-like radiation would modify the characteristic self-polarization time. We calculate the rate of spin-flipping synchrotron-like radiation in several simplified models, and find that the largest contribution is for an axial-vector. We use polarization time measurements from the Swiss-Light-Source, and SPEAR3 to set new strong limits on ultralight axial-vectors coupled to $e^\pm$.
The aim of this article is to show it is possible to get the power spectrum of the synchrotron radiation from the Volkov solution of the Dirac equation and the S-matrix. We also generalize the Bargmann-Michel-Telegdi equation for the spin motion in case it involves the radiative term. This equation can play crucial role for the spin motion of protons in LHC. The axion production in the magnetic field described by the Volkov solution is discussed.
We present a complete relativistic analysis for the scalar radiation emitted by a particle in circular orbit around a Schwarzschild-anti-de Sitter black hole. If the black hole is large, then the radiation is concentrated in narrow angles- high multipolar distribution- i.e., the radiation is synchrotronic. However, small black holes exhibit a totally different behavior: in the small black hole regime, the radiation is concentrated in low multipoles. There is a transition mass at $M=0.427 R$, where $R$ is the AdS radius. This behavior is new, it is not present in asymptotically flat spacetimes.
Spin and polarization effects and correlations between them in the processes of pair production by a photon and synchrotron radiation in a magnetic field are considered. Expressions for the probabilities of the processes with arbitrary polarizations of the particles are obtained. These expressions are analyzed in detail in both the lowest Landau levels and ultrarelativistic approximations.
Classical radiation power from an accelerated massive charge diverges in the zero-mass limit, while some general arguments suggest that strictly massless charge does not not radiate at all. On the other hand, the regularized classical radiation reaction force, though looking odd, is non-zero and finite. To clarify this controversy, we consider radiation problem in massless scalar quantum electrodynamics in the external magnetic field. In this framework, synchrotron radiation is found to be non-zero, finite, and essentially quantum. Its spectral distribution is calculated using Schwinger's prop…

We discuss the synchrotron radiation flux from the Galactic center in unstable dark matter scenario. Motivated by the anomalous excess of the positron fraction recently reported by the PAMELA collaboration, we consider the case that the dark matter particle is unstable (and long-lived), and that energetic electron and positron are produced by the decay of dark matter. Then, the emitted electron and positron becomes the source of the synchrotron radiation. We calculate the synchrotron radiation flux for models of decaying dark matter, which can explain the PAMELA positron excess. Taking the lif…
A recent derivation of an explicit elementary expression for the mean number $<N>$ of photons emitted per revolution in synchrotron radiation allows a systematic high-energy analysis leading to the result $<N>\simeq 5πα/\sqrt{3(1-β^2)}+a_0α+πα\sqrt{1-β^2}/10\sqrt{3}$ where $a_0$ is a constant, with relative errors of 2.2%, 0.64%, 0.017%, in comparison to the well-known formula tabulated in the literature of 160%, 82%, 17% for $β=0.8$, 0.9, 0.99, respectively.
The horizontal impact parameter profile of synchrotron radiation, for fixed vertical angle of the photon, is calculated. This profile is observed through an astigmatic optical system, horizontally focused on the electron trajectory and vertically focused at infinity. It is the product of the usual angular distribution of synchrotron radiation, which depends on the vertical angle $ψ$, and the profile function of a caustic staying at distance $\bcl = (γ^{-2} + ψ^2) \RB/2 $ from the orbit circle, $\RB$ being the bending radius and $γ$ the Lorentz factor. The {\it classical impact parameter} $\bcl…
In the framework of the classical effective Lorentz invariance violating (LIV) model of Myers-Pospelov, we present a complete calculation of the synchrotron radiation produced by a circularly moving charge in the rest frame of the model. Within the full far-field approximation we compute exact expressions for the electric and magnetic fields, the angular distribution of the power spectrum and the total emitted power in the m-th harmonic. We also perform an expansion of the latter quantity in terms of the electromagnetic LIV parameter and calculate the average degree of circular polarization to…
We have considered collective effects in $ν\barν$ synchrotron radiation from an ultrarelativistic degenerate electron gas in neutron stars with strong magnetic fields. For this problem we apply a calculation method which explicitly makes use of the fact that the radiating electron moves semi-classically, but takes into account the interaction among particles in a quantum way. First we apply this method to calculate $ν\barν$ synchrotron radiation by an ultrarelativistic electron in vacuum and we compare this result with that obtained previously by other techniques. When a degenerate plasma is c…
We review some of the properties of extensive cosmic ray air showers and describe a simple model of the radio-frequency radiation generated by shower electrons and positrons as they bend in the Earth's magnetic field. We perform simulations by calculating the trajectory and radiation of a few thousand charged shower particles. The results are then transformed to predict the strength and polarization of the electromagnetic radiation emitted by the whole shower.
We study pion production from proton synchrotron radiation in the presence of strong magnetic fields. We derive the exact proton propagator from the Dirac equation in a strong magnetic field by explicitly including the anomalous magnetic moment. In this exact quantum-field approach the magnitude of pion synchrotron emission turns out to be much smaller than that obtained in the semi-classical approach. However, we also find that the anomalous magnetic moment of the proton greatly enhances the production rate about by two order magnitude.
We study the synchrotron radiation of gluons by fast quarks in strong magnetic field produced by colliding relativistic heavy-ions. We argue that due to high electric conductivity of plasma, time variation of the magnetic field is slow and estimate its relaxation time. We calculate the energy loss due to synchrotron radiation of gluons by fast quarks. We find that the typical energy loss per unit length for a light quark at LHC is a few GeV per fm. This effect alone predicts quenching of jets with $p_\bot$ up to about 20 GeV. We also show that the spin-flip transition effect accompanying the s…
The measurement of vacuum polarisation effects, in particular vacuum birefringence, using combined optical and x-ray laser pulses is now actively pursued. Here we briefly examine the feasibility of two alternative setups. The first utilises an alternative target, namely a converging dipole pulse, and the second uses an alternative probe, namely the synchrotron-like emission from highly energetic particles, themselves interacting with a laser pulse. The latter setup has been proposed for experiments at ELI-NP.
Synchrotron radiation from cosmic string wakes

Electrons at the surface of a plasma that is irradiated by a laser with intensity in excess of $10^{23}~\mathrm{W}\mathrm{cm}^{-2}$ are accelerated so strongly that they emit bursts of synchrotron radiation. Although the combination of high photon and electron density and electromagnetic field strength at the plasma surface makes particle-particle interactions possible, these interactions are usually neglected in simulations of the high-intensity regime. Here we demonstrate an implementation of two such processes: photon absorption and stimulated emission. We show that, for plasmas that are op…

The excesses of the cosmic positron fraction recently measured by PAMELA and the electron spectra by ATIC, PPB-BETS, Fermi and H.E.S.S. indicate the existence of primary electron and positron sources. The possible explanations include dark matter annihilation, decay, and astrophysical origin, like pulsars. In this work we show that these three scenarios can all explain the experimental results of the cosmic $e^\pm$ excess. However, it may be difficult to discriminate these different scenarios by the local measurements of electrons and positrons. We propose possible discriminations among these …
The photon emission by an ultrarelativistic charged particle in extremely strong magnetic field is analyzed, with vacuum polarization and photon recoil taken into account. The vacuum polarization is treated phenomenologically via refractive index. The photon emission occurs in the synergic (cooperative) synchrotron-Cherenkov process [J. Schwinger, W. Tsai and T. Erber, Annals of Physics, 96 303 (1976)] which is similar to the synchrotron emission rather than to the Cherenkov one. For electrons, the effect of the vacuum polarization on the emission spectrum is not evident even beyond the probab…
