Cyclotron Synchrotron Radiation

Cyclotron and Synchrotron Radiation. Charged particles are accelerated by B-fields ? radiation magnetobremsstrahlung". Cyclotron Radiation non-relativistic particles frequency of emission = frequency of gyration. Synchrotron Radiation relativistic particles frequency of emission from a single particle ? emission at a range of frequencies.
