Bremssstrahlung and zero-energy Rindler photons
Abstract
The bremsstrahlung effect is analyzed in the frame coaccelerating with the charge. In particular, it is shown that the usual rate of photon emission with a given transverse momentum computed in the inertial frame can be interpreted as the combined rate of emission (adsorption) of zero-energy Rindler photons into (from) the thermal bath as calculated in the particle rest frame.
