Synchrotron Debate
• c. 1945-1955:
• What is crab emission (and diffuse galaxy, and “radio stars”)?
• What are cosmic rays?
• Russia vs. the World
• Scheuer, theorist: “Understanding the physics of synchrotron theory was extremely difficult, […] requiring an effort beyond what most radio astronomers were willing to invest.”
