TY - JOUR AU - Durrani, Matin AB - On the first floor of the Clarendon Laboratory in Oxford, John Singleton and colleagues are building a device called a polarization synchrotron. They have been working on it for over a year, and are just waiting for some specialized electronic components before testing can begin. But this is no ordinary device. It will, they claim, be able to emit electromagnetic radiation at almost any frequency. More surprisingly, they predict that the intensity of the radiation will fall off as l/r, where r is the distance from the device, rather than as l/r2 as taught in physics textbooks.
