Abstract

Synchrotron radiation in a static homogeneous magnetic field is considered from the viewpoint of inverse Compton scattering of equivalent photons in a generalization of the Fermi-Weizsacker-Williams method. The charged particle trajectory in its orbital plane is treated as a set of infinitesimal segments and, in a corresponding local Lorentz frame, the influence of each segment on the particle, is approximated by an equivalent electromagnetic wave which undergoes Compton interaction with the particle. The complex amplitudes of the scattered radiation from all elements are added coherently, on returning to the laboratory frame, to yield the total radiated intensity
