  Pavel Alekseyevich Cherenkov - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This Cherenkov effect, associated with charged atomic particles moving at velocities higher than the speed of light in the local medium, proved to be of great importance in subsequent experimental work in nuclear physics, and for the study of cosmic rays.
Pavel Cherenkov has also shared in the development and construction of electron accelerators and in the investigations of photo-nuclear and photo-meson reactions.
Cherenkov was awarded USSR State Prizes in 1946 (with Vavilov, Frank, and Tamm), in 1952, and 1977.

 Cherenkov radiation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cherenkov radiation (also spelled Cerenkov or sometimes Čerenkov) is electromagnetic radiation emitted when a charged particle passes through an insulator at a speed greater than that of light in the medium.
In pool-type nuclear reactors, the intensity of Cherenkov radiation is related to the frequency of the fission events that produce high-energy electrons, and hence is a measure of the intensity of the reaction.
Cherenkov radiation is also used to characterize the remaining radioactivity of spent fuel rods.

The Cherenkov effect is used as a visual cue in Hollywood movies to announce radioactive materials - no doubt the reason for the general public awareness of the effect.

Cherenkov radiation or Cerenkov radiation [for P. Cherenkov], light emitted by a transparent medium when charged particles pass through it at a speed greater than the speed of light in the medium.
The effect, discovered by Cherenkov in 1934 while he was studying the effects of gamma rays on liquids and explained in 1937 by I. Tamm and I. Frank, is analogous to the creation of a sonic boom when an object exceeds the speed of sound in a medium.
The effect is used in the Cherenkov counter, a device for detecting fast particles and determining their speeds or distinguishing between particles of different speeds.

In 1934 he discovered Cherenkov radiation; this occurs as a bluish light when charged atomic particles pass through water or other media at a speed in excess of that of light.
He shared a Nobel prize 1958 with his colleagues Ilya Frank and Igor Tamm for work resulting in a cosmic-ray counter.
Cherenkov discovered that this effect was independent of any medium and depended for its production on the passage of high velocity electrons.

Cherenkov graduated from Voronezh State University in 1928; he later became a research student at the P.N. Lebedev Physical Institute of the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union (now the Russian Academy of Sciences).
In 1934, in the course of his dissertation research, he observed that electrons produced a faint blue glow when passing through a transparent liquid at high velocity.
This phenomenon, which was interpreted by Tamm and Frank, led to the development of the Cherenkov counter, or Cherenkov detector, which was later used extensively in experimental nuclear and particle physics.

La radiación de Cherenkov (Cerenkov también deletreado) es radiación electromágnetica emitida cuando una partícula cargada pasa a través de un aislador a una velocidad mayor que la de la luz en el medio.
La radiación de Cherenkov resulta cuando una partícula cargada, lo más común posible un electrón, excede la velocidad de la luz en un medio dieléctrico con el cual pase.
En reactores nucleares, la intensidad de la radiación de Cherenkov se relaciona con la frecuencia de los acontecimientos de la fisión que producen electrones de gran energía, y por lo tanto es una medida de la intensidad de la reacción.
