Radiation emitted by electrons moving at very high speeds (approaching the speed of light) in magnetic fields. An electron follows a helical path around a magnetic field line and, at relativistic (i.e. close to the speed of light) velocities, emits radiation in a narrow cone in the direction of its motion. Synchrotron radiation has a characteristic spectrum and generally exhibits a high degree of...
