✦ Synopsis

From the reviews:

"The book having nine chapters reviews fundamental physical and mathematical problems of the Vavilov-Cherenkov effect of media. Here the readers could find a discussion of all basic problems of the Vavilov-Cherenkov effect and of synchrotron radiation. … This book may be useful for advanced graduate students and for professional scientists, both experimentalists and theoreticians." (Oleg A. Sinkevich, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1067 (18), 2005)

The theory of the Vavilov-Cherenkov radiation observed by Cherenkov in 1934 was created by Tamm, Frank and Ginsburg who associated the observed blue light with the uniform charge motion of a charge at a velocity greater than the velocity of light in the medium. On the other hand, Vavilov, Cherenk
