Abstract

The radiation by an electromagnetic source that uniformly translates within a rectangular wave-guide with dissipative walls is studied. Lorentz covariance transformations are applied to the Plane-Wave (PW) spectrum representing the radiated field in the source rest frame; in such reference frame the boundary appears as backwardly shifting: this is treated by a relativistic modification of Snell and Fresnel rules, which match on the confining walls any impinging PW component with its own reflected 'twin'. Moreover, PW representation minimizes the algebraic cumbersomeness of covariance relations, which can be recast as alteration formulas for PW parameters. [DOI: 10.1685 / CSC06064] About DOI
