Transition Radiation as a Probe of the Chiral Anomaly
Copyright policy )Transition Radiation as a Probe of the Chiral Anomaly
A fast charged particle crossing the boundary between the chiral matter and vacuum radiates the transition radiation. Its most remarkable features --- the resonant behavior at a certain emission angle and the circular polarization of the spectrum --- depend on the parameters of the chiral anomaly in a particular material/matter. The chiral transition radiation can be used to investigate the chiral anomaly in such diverse media as the quark-gluon plasma, the Weyl semimetals, and the axionic dark matter.
