has gloss | eng: The Askaryan effect is the phenomenon whereby a particle traveling faster than light in a dense dielectric (such as salt, ice or the lunar regolith) produces a shower of secondary charged particles which contain a charge anisotropy and thus emits a cone of coherent radiation in the radio or microwave part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is similar to the Cherenkov effect. It is named for Gurgen Askaryan, a Soviet-Armenian physicist who postulated it in 1962. |
