Abstract
Transition radiation produced when a charged particle successively crosses two anisotropically conducting planes is considered. The first plane has the form of a two-dimensional array (grating) made of thin metal wires parallel to the x and y axes. The second plane is a one-dimensional array whose wires are parallel to the y axis. The planes are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the particle trajectory. Transition radiation is shown to be elliptically polarized, the degree of ellipticity and rotation direction being dependent on the direction of radiation, the distance between the arrays, and the particle velocity.
