Abstract:

In a preceding paper [T. Hirayama, Prog. Theor. Phys.  106 (2001), 71], the power of the classical radiation emitted by a moving charge was evaluated in the Rindler frame. In this paper, we give a simpler derivation of this radiation formula, including an estimation of the directional dependence of the radiation. We find that the splitting of the energy-momentum tensor into a bound part \widetilde I and an emitted part \widetilde II is consistent with the three conditions introduced in the preceding paper, also for each direction within the future light cone.
