Abstract: | The influence of a potential barrier on the transition radiation in the form of volume and surface electromagnetic waves emitted
by a charged particle crossing an interface between media is investigated. It is shown that the volume-wave radiation field
arises not only as a result of the jump in the dielectric constant at the boundary but also as a result of the velocity jump
and the reflection of an electron induced by the presence of a nonuniform potential barrier. The angular distribution of the
transition radiation intensity is obtained.
