Bremsstrahlung from Polarized Electrons

Abstract
The production of unpolarized bremsstrahlung by polarized electrons in the Coulomb field of a nucleus is considered. An approximate analytical expression for the differential cross section summed over final electron spins is presented. This differential cross section is integrated numerically over angles of the emitted electron to determine the asymmetry in the photon angular distribution. Results of the numerical integration are given for incident electron velocities in the range 0.4cv0.9c.
