Abstract
Recent results in the field of ''polarizational'' bremsstrahlung are d iscussed. The bremsstrahlung cross-sections are presented for the coll isions of medium-energy electrons with He, Ne and Xe atoms. It is show n that in the high frequency limit the total bremsstrahlung spectrum i s the same as for a bare nucleus. It is demonstrated that in ion-atom collisions the polarizational bremsstrahlung is as intensive as from e lectrons and can serve as a source of radiation for X-ray laser pumpin g. Double bremsstrahlung taking the polarizational contribution into a ccount is considered. Perspectives in this field are outlined.
