Zusammenfassung:
Classical radiation reaction is the effect of the electromagnetic field
emitted by an accelerated electric charge on the motion of the charge itself.
The self-consistent underlying classical equation of motion including
radiation-reaction effects, the Landau-Lifshitz equation, has never been tested
experimentally, in spite of the first theoretical treatments of radiation
reaction having been developed more than a century ago. Here we show that
classical radiation reaction effects, in particular those due to the near
electromagnetic field, as predicted by the Landau-Lifshitz equation, can be
measured using presently available facilities, in the energy emission spectrum
of $10$-$\text{GeV}$ electrons crossing a $0.5$-$\text{mm}$ thick diamond
crystal in the axial channeling regime. Our theoretical results demonstrate the
feasibility of the suggested setup, e.g., at the CERN Secondary Beam Areas
(SBA) beamlines.
