High energy particles traversing the Universe through the cosmic microwave
backgroung radiation can, in principle, emit Cherenkov radiation. It is shown
that the energy threshold for this radiation is extremely high and its
intensity would be too low due to the low density of the "relic photons gas"
and very weak interaction of two photons.
