Synchrotron radiation refers to electromagnetic radiation similar to cyclotron radiation, but generated by electrons moving at highly relativistic speeds. Synchrotron radiation can be generated by astronomical structures and motions.

See also synchrotron light for applications of syncrotron radiation and synchrotron for this type of particle accelerator.
