Extremely high-energy bremsstrahlung in matter
Abstract
The theory of bremsstrahlung e eγ by extremely high energy electrons passing through ordinary matter has been qualitatively incomplete. We revisit the suppression of bremsstrahlung by the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal (LPM) effect, here accounting for quantum disruption of that effect from pair production. Our analysis covers the full range of ultra-relativistic electron and photon energies (subject to a few simplifying approximations).
