Which radiation emitted by circadian electron ?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the radiation emitted by electrons in circular motion, specifically synchrotron radiation, which occurs in circular accelerators and is typically in the x-ray range. The term "circadian electron" is clarified as a misnomer, as "circadian" does not relate to circular motion. Participants explore how elementary particles, like electrons, emit radiation and discuss their intrinsic properties such as mass, electric charge, and magnetic moment. There is a question about whether these features should be represented as sub-particles. Overall, the conversation delves into the fundamental characteristics and behaviors of electrons in motion.

Which radiation emitted by an electron that moves in a circular motion ?

And how radiation can be emitted by an elementary particle?

An electron that moves in a circular motion .

If you mean electrons in a circular accelerator, they emit radiadiation in the x-ray range, usually.

Circadian does not mean "in circular motion".
 
Thanks for the 2 answers .
How radiation can be emitted by an elementary particle?
And more generally how an elementary particle like electron have
mass , electric charge ,magnetic moment and more ?
Is each of these features should not be represented as a sub-particle
?

This is from Griffiths' Electrodynamics, 3rd edition, page 352. I am trying to calculate the divergence of the Maxwell stress tensor. The tensor is given as ##T_{ij} =\epsilon_0 (E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} E^2)+\frac 1 {\mu_0}(B_iB_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij} B^2)##. To make things easier, I just want to focus on the part with the electrical field, i.e. I want to find the divergence of ##E_{ij}=E_iE_j-\frac 1 2 \delta_{ij}E^2##. In matrix form, this tensor should look like this...
Thread 'Applying the Gauss (1835) formula for force between 2 parallel DC currents'
Please can anyone either:- (1) point me to a derivation of the perpendicular force (Fy) between two very long parallel wires carrying steady currents utilising the formula of Gauss for the force F along the line r between 2 charges? Or alternatively (2) point out where I have gone wrong in my method? I am having problems with calculating the direction and magnitude of the force as expected from modern (Biot-Savart-Maxwell-Lorentz) formula. Here is my method and results so far:- This...
