We present a set of formulas describing classical radiation of a rank-$s$ tensor field from an accelerated pointlike source in a flat space–time of an arbitrary even dimension $d$. These formulas allow straightforwardly and algorithmically evaluating the total intensity and radiated momentum for any $s$ and $d$ by hand or using a computer. The practical application of the obtained results is limited for $s>1$ because the energy–momentum tensor for the pointlike source is not conserved. This usually means that contributions to the radiation from tensions of the forces causing the acceleration of the radiation source cannot be neglected.
Keywords:
classical radiation, higher dimensions, string theory.
