The possibility that a charged particle propagating in a gravitational field described by Brans-Dicke theory of gravity could emit Cerenkov radiation is explored. This process is kinematically allowed depending on parameters occurring in…
Cherenkov radiation which generates by a charge moving in presence of a dielectric prism from the base to the top is analyzed. Unlike our previous works, here we consider the case when the charge trajectory is not parallel to the prism…
We address the old question of whether or not a uniformly accelerated charged particle radiates, and consequently, if weak equivalence principle is violated by electrodynamics. We show that radiation has different meanings; some absolute,…
There is suggested a version of the experiment with a correlated pair of particles in the entangled state. The experiment demonstrates that, in the case of weak and/or non-demolition measurements of one of the particles, it is possible to…
A point charge accelerating under the influence of an external force emits electromagnetic radiation that reduces the increase in its mechanical energy. This causes a reduction in the particle's acceleration. We derive the decrease in…
We show that reversed Vavilov-\v{C}erenkov radiation occurs simultaneously with the forward output in naturally existing materials when an electric charge moves with a constant velocity perpendicular to the planar interface between two…
Cerenkov radiation from cavities have been analyzed by quantum electrodynamic theory. Analytical expressions of some basic radiation properties including Einstein's $A$ and $B$ coefficients are derived and shown to be directly modified by…
Here, we investigate the Cherenkov emission by an array of moving electric charges in the vicinity of a topologically nontrivial gyrotropic material. It is shown that the nonreciprocal material response may result in a robustly asymmetric…
It has been hypothesized recently that core collapse supernovae are triggered by mildly relativistic jets following observations of radio properties of these explosions. Association of a jet, similar to a gamma-ray burst jet but only…
The equations of massive electrodynamics are derived and the power spectrum formula for the Cherenkov radiation of massive photons is found. The Cherenkov power spectrum is determined also for the two-charge system. It is argued that the…
The existence of a faster-than-light particle is in direct opposition to Einstein's relativity and the principle of causality. However, we show that the theory of classical relativistic fields is not inherently inconsistent with the…
The concept of group velocity of a particle should be consistent with its Hamilton-Jacobi velocity. This point is missed in the work of Cohen, Glashow, "{\it Pair Creation Constrains Superluminal Neutrino Propagation}" (Phys. Rev. Lett.…
The Brownian motion of a charged particle with finite size (described by Sommerfeld model) is considered. It is found out that due to radiation reaction: (1) the effective temperature of such particle is lower, and (2) the acceleration of…
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are extragalactic radio transients with extremely high brightness temperature, which strongly suggests the presence of coherent emission mechanisms. In this study, we introduce a novel radiation mechanism for FRBs…
The energy radiated by moving cracks in a discrete background is analyzed. The energy flow through a given surface is expressed in terms of a generalized Poynting vector. The velocity of the crack is determined by the radiation by the crack…
We study the radiation of photons from a classical charged particle. We particularly consider a situation where the particle has a constant velocity in the distant past, then is accelerated, and then has a constant velocity in the distant…
Results are presented of detailed measurements of the signals generated by high-energy electrons and muons in lead tungstate crystals. A significant fraction of the light produced in these crystals and detected by photomultiplier tubes is…
It is shown that the transferring of light signal faster-than-c can take place exclusively as the instantaneous quantum tunneling. Its extent (space size of instanton) must be inversely relative to lack of energy till nearest stable or…
The propagation of the wave function of a particle is characterised by a group and a phase velocity. The group velocity is associated with the particle's classical velocity, which is always smaller than the speed of light, and the phase…
Emission of a charged particle propagating in a medium with a curved magnetic field is reconsidered stressing the analogy between this emission mechanism and collective Cherenkov-type plasma emission. It is explained how this mechanism…
