Scientific paper

The intensity spectral function for the spin-flip synchrotron radiation in the presence of a plasma was deduced. Using parameters appropriate to astrophysical conditions, the paper attempts to compare the characteristics of the spin-flip synchrotron radiation and the normal synchrotron radiation in a magnetized plasma arising from an electron or positron rotating around the magnetic field. A rotating charge gives the maximum possible synchrotron radiative power as compared to a charge of the same energy but moving in a helical path. Since the spin-flip radiational does not depend on the form of the orbital path, whether circular or helical or along a straight line, the analysis presented here gives the lower limit of the relative importance of the spin-flip radiation to the normal synchrotron radiation emitted by the same radiator.
