Abstract

We examine the extreme situation of radiation from an electron that is asymptotically accelerated to the speed of light, resulting in finite emission energy. The analytic solution explicitly demonstrates the difference between radiation power loss and kinetic power loss (null).

Keywords: acceleration radiation; black hole evaporation; moving mirrors.
