Bursts from soft gamma repeaters have been shown to be super-Eddington by a factor of 1000 and have been persuasively associated with compact objects. Here, a model of super-Eddington radiation transfer on the surface of a strongly magnetic…
We show that an upper limit on the maximum brightness temperature for a self-absorbed incoherent synchrotron radio source is obtained from the size of its gyro orbits, which in turn must lie well within the confines of the total source…
Synchrotron radiation is widely considered as the origin of the pulsed non-thermal emissions from rotation-powered pulsars in optical and X-ray bands. In this paper, we study the synchrotron radiation emitted by the created electron and…
We study the synchrotron radiation emitted by a charged fermion, rotating as a part of a larger system, in a constant magnetic field $B$ parallel to the axis of rotation. The rotation is classical and independent of the magnetic field. The…
Undulator radiation from synchrotron light sources must be transported down a beamline from the source to the sample. A partially coherent photon beam may be represented in phase space using a Wigner function, and its transport may use some…
