synchrotron radiation
n.
Electromagnetic radiation emitted by high-energy particles when accelerated to relativistic speeds in a magnetic field.

synchrotron radiation
n
(Physics / General Physics) electromagnetic radiation emitted in narrow beams tangential to the orbit of very high energy charged particles, such as electrons, spiralling along the lines of force in a strong magnetic field. It occurs in synchrotron accelerators and in many cosmic environments, such as radio galaxies and supernova remnants

synchrotron radiation
Electromagnetic radiation emitted by high-energy particles that are moving in a circular path, as in a synchrotron particle accelerator. Energy lost by synchrotron radiation increases rapidly as particles approach the speed of light.
