In a relativistic plasma neutrino can emit plasmons by the Cerenkov process which is kinematically allowed for a range of frequencies for which refractive index is greater than one. We have calculated the rate of energy emission by this…
We study Cherenkov and transition radiation of neutral spin 1/2 particles which carry magnetic moments or electric dipole moments. In particular, we estimate the radiation caused by the solar neutrino flux in dielectric media.
The radiation generated by a charged longitudinal oscillator moving with a constant drift velocity along the axis of a dielectric cylinder immersed in a homogeneous medium is investigated. For an arbitrary oscillation law a formula is…
A new mechanism of photon emission in the quark-gluon plasma is proposed. Photon dispersion relation in the presence of the $CP$-odd topological regions generated by the chiral anomaly acquires an imaginary mass. It allows photon radiation…
We discuss a new channel of photon emission from the quark-gluon plasma, which opens up as photon acquires a tachyonic mass in the presence of the CP-odd topological domains generated by the chiral anomaly. It allows photon radiation…
We compute the spectrum of gluons emitted by a highly energetic quark inside a flowing QCD medium, focusing on the soft gluon limit at first order in the opacity expansion. Specifically, we derive the leading energy-suppressed corrections…
Electrically charged particles, moving faster than the speed of light in a medium, emit Cherenkov radiation. Theory predicts electric and magnetic dipoles to radiate as well, with a puzzling behavior for magnetic dipoles pointing in…

We calculate the rate at which a free tachyon (faster than light particle) would emit gravitational radiation. It is very small.
We study an electromagnetic radiation of a small bunch having a variable charge value and crossing a flat interface between two media. Both media are homogeneous, stationary, and isotropic. They may have frequency dispersion but no spatial…
We investigate the hypothetical process of gravitational Cherenkov radiation, which may occur in modified gravity theories. We obtain a useful constraint on a modified dispersion relation for propagating modes of gravitational waves, which…

We present the detailed quantum electrodynamical description of Vavilov-Cherenkov radiation emitted by a relativistic twisted electron in the transparent medium. Simple expressions for the spectral and spectral-angular distributions as well…
Some part of the microwave Cherenkov radiation from a particle-in-flight from vacuum to semi-infinite layered medium is redirected by the periodical structure of medium in the backward direction. This part of radiation is…
In this letter a new coherent gamma emission mechanism, called Super-Cerenkov radiation, is introduced. The SCR is expected to take place when the charged particle is moving in a medium with a phase velocity satisfying the super-coherent…
For some physics students, the concept of a particle travelling faster than the speed of light holds endless fascination, and Cherenkov radiation is a visible consequence of a charged particle travelling through a medium at locally…
Cherenkov radiation provides a valuable way to identify high energy particles in a wide momentum range, through the relation between the particle velocity and the Cherenkov angle. However, since the Cherenkov angle depends only on…
Visible Cherenkov radiation can offers a method of the measurement of the velocity of a charged particles. The angular width of the radiation is important since it determines the resolution of the velocity measurement. In this article, the…
We show that a heavy quark moving sufficiently fast through a quark-gluon plasma may lose energy by Cherenkov-radiating mesons. We demonstrate that this takes place in all strongly coupled, large-Nc plasmas with a gravity dual. The energy…
Generalized Super-Cherenkov Radiations (SCR), as well as their SCR-signatures are investigated. Two general SCR-coherence conditions are found as two natural extremes of the same spontaneous particles decays in (dielectric, nuclear or…
