Synchrotron radiation in odd dimensions

Abstract: In odd space-time dimensions, the retarded solution of the massless wave equation has support not only on the light cone, but also inside it. At the same time, a free massless field should propagate at the speed of light. The apparent contradiction of these two features is resolved by the fact that the emitted part of the field in the wave zone depends on the history of motion up to the retarded moment of proper time. It is shown that in the case of circular motion with ultrarelativistic velocity, the main con… Show more

“…Note that, due to the electromagnetic field's energy-momentum tensor being the bilinear functional of the field derivatives T µν ∼ ∂A ∂A, one can define the emitted part of the latter (∂ µ A ν ) rad , which contributes into the radiated part of the energy-momentum tensor T µν rad . Similar decomposition and reasoning holds in any spacetime dimensions [39,44,77] and, also, for the scalar [70,77] and gravitational fields. The only difference is that in D dimensions area of the distant sphere is proportional to r D−2 , thus, the relevant asymptotic behaviour of the field derivative in the wave zone is 1/r D/2−1 .…”

“…However, being based on the calculations in the momentum space irrelevant to the dimensionality of the spacetime, this method does not provide us with any information about the structure of the retarded field in the wave zone and the role of the tail term in the formation of radiation. As was shown recently, this obstacle can be overcome in two ways: by Fourier transforming the retarded Green's functions over the temporal coordinate [69], or by modifying the radiation definition [70,71]. In this article, we follow the second approach.…”

“…Recent years have been rapidly growing interest in the problems of electromagnetic and gravitational self-force on a point-like particle moving in curved spacetime. It was due to the development of gravitational wave astronomy [1] and the need to produce accurate gravitational waveforms [2] for future space-based gravitational interferometer LISA; rapid advances in laser technology which produces necessity of correct description of motion of ultrarelativivstic electron in intense electromagnetic fields [3][4][5][6][7]; growing interest in the theory of radiation in spacetime dimensions other than four [8,9]. The problems are intimately connected to each other.…”
