Question

<p>When high-energy, charged particles move<br />through a transparent medium with a speed<br />greater than the speed of light in that<br />medium, a shock wave, or bow wave, of light<br />is produced. This phenomenon is called the<br />Cherenkov effect and can be observed in the<br />vicinity of the core of a swimming pool reactor<br />due to high-speed electrons moving through<br />the water. In a particular case, the Cherenkov<br />radiation produces a wavefront with an apex<br />half-angle of 51.9 degrees.</p>
