ABSTRACT
Radiation emission and radiative force for the uniformly accelerated motion of a charge. Relativistic equation of motion including radiation reaction. Radiation emission by a uniformly accelerated charge and other such questions are not particularly urgent or, at least, are sufficiently well understood for practical purposes. This is precisely what happened with the old problem of radiation emitted by an uniformly accelerated charge, when it proved to be relevant to the analysis of a major development in theoretical physics—the discovery of the "evaporation" of black holes. It is therefore natural that the quantum effects observed in a gravitational field also occur to a certain extent in a uniformly accelerated frame of reference. The chapter discusses the radiation emitted by a charge that is uniformly accelerated in an inertial frame of reference, of course, directly related to the behaviour of a charge that is at rest in a uniformly accelerated frame of reference.
