Abstract
The inverse Compton scattering of high energy electrons by
photons is discussed and a simple derivation of the total power radiated is
presented. The derivation is completely classical and exhibits clearly why
similar formulas are applicable in the case of inverse compton scattering
and synchroton radiation.
