Abstract
Electromagnetic radiation emitted by charged particles is an indispensable part of majority of courses on general electrodynamics. There are special monographs available, dedicated to some of the typical cases – such as synchrotron, transition, and Vavilov–Cherenkov radiation. As a rule, it is usually emphasized that the radiation field is the self-field of a charged particle in the far-field zone, where it decreases in inverse proportion to a distance from the emitter so that the total energy flow through a closed surface remains constant while the surface expands to infinity.
