Abstract

The radiation emitted by charges in orbit around black holes has been studied since the 60s up to the present days by a number of researchers including ourselves. In this master thesis we aim to go a step further and analyze the interference of the emitted radiation when the source is composed by an ionized plasma rather than by some isolated charge. The spacetime curvature will be also taken into account. (AU)
