Transition of the light velocity in the Vavilov - Cerenkov effect
نویسندگان
چکیده
Accelerated and decelerated motions of a charged point particle inside medium are studied. It is shown explicitly that in addition to the bremsstrahlung and Cerenkov singular waves, previously unknown electromagnetic singular wave should be observed. It arises when the charge velocity coincides with the light velocity in medium. This wave has the same singularity as the Cerenkov one and, therefore, it is more singular than the bremsstrahlung wave. The spacetime regions where these waves exist and conditions under which they appear are determined.

Optics of Light Sources Moving in Refractive Media.
For a number of years the Vavilov-Cerenkov effect appeared as but a peculiar optical phenomenon difficult to observe. Light emission was induced by using radioactive preparations and the glow was observed visually. The weakness of the glow seemed to preclude any application of the phenomenon in physics, and so much the more in engineering. Since the theory of the Vavilov-Cerenkov effect appeare...
متن کاملCerenkov radiation in photonic crystals.
In a conventional material, the coherent Cerenkov radiation due to a moving charged particle is associated with a velocity threshold, a forward-pointing radiation cone, and a forward direction of emission. We describe different behavior for the Cerenkov radiation in a photonic crystal. In particular, this radiation is intrinsically coupled with transition radiation and is observable without any...
متن کاملBehavioral effect of naloxone on anxiolytic- like effect of noscapine in bulb/c mice
The effect of naloxone, a non-selective opioid antagonist on some anxiolytic and analgesic drugs is reported. Noscapine is an opioid alkaloid with antitussive effect that cannot be antagonized by naloxone. The anxiolytic-like effect of noscapine has been shown in light-dark model and elevated plus maze. In this study the effect of naloxone on anxiolytic effect of noscapine in light-dark model w...

The aim of the present study is deriving an analytical solution to incompressible thermal flow in a micro-Couette geometry in the presence of a pressure gradient using Burnett equations with first- and second-order slip boundary conditions. The lower plate of the micro-Couette structure is stationary, whereas the upper plate moves at a constant velocity. Non-dimensional axial velocity and tempe...
