Super-Čerenkov Radiation as New Exotic Decay in Refractive Media

Abstract

Generalized Super-Čerenkov Radiations (SČR), as well as their SČR-signatures are investigated. Two general SČR-coherence conditions are found as two natural extremes of the same spontaneous particles decays in (dielectric, nuclear or hadronic) media. The main results on the experimental test of the super-coherence conditions, obtained by using the experimental data from BNL, are presented. The interpretation of the observed anomalous Čerenkov rings as experimental evidence for the HE-component of the SČR is discussed.
