Abstract
Electromagnetic radiation in the far‐infrared region of the spectrum was produced by the interaction between a relativistic electron beam and a spatially modulated magnetic field. Power of the order of megawatts was observed at wavelengths greater than about 50 μ. The radiation does not originate from a simple synchrotron mechanism, and one has to invoke other processes.Keywords
