Description: Some of the features of synchrotron radiation are examined which occur when relativistic particles move at small pitch angles in a magnetic field. The emission from individual particles is computed. The general properties of the emission from distributions of particles with small pitch angles is discussed, and the emissivities and degrees of polarization for several specific source models are presented. For sources which mainly contain particles with small pitch angles, the degree of circular polarization will normally be high, whereas, if the magnetic field is somewhat irregular, the degree of linear polarization will be small. If the particle distribution also has a low-energy cutoff, the emissivity will vary linearly with frequency at low frequencies.
