  1. Synchrotron light is conventionally defined as the emission from accelerated ultra-relativistic electric charges.

    Ultra-relativistic means that the speed of the charge is extremely close to the speed of light, v ≈ c.

    The first part of the book deals with introductory concepts, starting from special relativity, and moving on emission from accelerated charges, then #synchrotron emission from charges in circular and undulating trajectories.
