Electromagnetic radiation from jets is normally considered to be incoherent synchrotron emission. Some aspects of radiation from both stellar and extragalactic jets could, however, be due to coherent emission mechanisms. Coherent radiation mechanisms have the advantage of being able to account for the high brightness temperatures inferred from some observations. One of the most popular coherent radio emission mechanisms is the electron cyclotron maser instability. In this article we discuss electron cyclotron maser emission associated with particular types of charged particle acceleration commonly inferred in astrophysical jets, including turbulence and shocks. |
