LINEAR POLARIZATION OF RADIATION OF AN ARBITRARILY MOVING RELATIVISTIC CHARGE // Tomsk State Pedagogical University Bulletin. 2014. Issue 12 (153). P. 17-21

Exact methods of relativistic radiation theory have been used to construct indicatrixes of the angular distributions of instantaneous power radiated by an arbitrarily moving relativistic charge. It is assumed that at the moment of emission, the charge path is arbitrarily located relative to the coordinate system. The same technique has been used to study the linear polarization of radiation of an arbitrarily moving particle in the cases of curvature and fan-like radiation.
