ABSTRACT. Contrary to the Cauchy and Poisson classical seismic theory of the continuum, the new theory for structured (also called porous, fractured, or blocked) media must contain several degrees of freedom. This fact is evident because elementary blocks (grains) may transfer the motion by contact interaction, by rotation, and by group of particles. Therefore, the energy content is not only contained within the first spatial derivatives (strains), but the potential energy content is within the second (curvatures) and other higher order spatial derivatives. Thus, the equation of motion of porous media should contain higher order spatial derivatives, andmay even contain infinite order spatial derivatives.Keywords: seismic structured media, porous media, fractured media. RESUMO. Contrariamente aos problemas clássicos da teoria sísmica do contínuo de Cauchy e Poisson, a nova teoria para meios estruturados (também denominados de porosos, fraturados e blocados) deve conter vários graus de liberdade. Este fato é evidente porque blocos elementares (grãos) podem transferir movimento por interação de contato, por rotação, e por grupo de partículas. Desta forma, o conteúdo de energia não está apenas contido nas primeiras derivadas espaciais (deformações), como também o conteúdo de energia potencial está presente na segunda (curvaturas), e em derivadas espaciais de maior ordem. Sendo assim, a equação de movimento para meios porosos deveria conter derivadas espaciais de ordem mais altas, e até mesmo uma ordem infinita de derivadas espaciais.Palavras-chave: meios sísmicos estruturados, meios porosos, meios fraturados.

The spectral distribution of radiation emitted by a charged particle moving nonrelativistically in a prescribed electromagnetic field, consisting of a strong uniform magnetic induction on which is superimposed a weak inhomogeneity, is determined. The calculation is confined to trajectories characterized by small Larmor radii, and to the azimuthal average of the full angular distribution of the radiation, the azimuthal angle being measured in a co-ordinate system for which the uniform component of the field defines the polar axis. If the particle gyrates for a time long compared to the gyro-period, the spectrum separates into several independent lines. Quantitative expressions for the distribution of energy within each line are presented, and then evaluated for selected inhomogeneities. Qualitatively, it is found that inhomogeneities (i) may distort the distribution of energy within the spectral line at the gyro-frequency by broadening, displacing, destroying the symmetry of, and/or splitting that line, and (ii) may also generate spectral lines at aipproximate harmonics of the gyro-frequency. These harmonics are second order in the inhomogeneity, are of successively higher order in the Larmor radius, involve successively higher-order spatial derivatives of the inhomogeneities, may occur at frequencies whose ratios are not precisely ratios of integers, and may be split into two or more closely spaced components.
