Re: Cerenkov spectrum question

[Agnes Barlow <Agnes.Barlow@yale.edu>]

My source says the peak is at 400 nm-extreme blue end of visible light.
It refers to two papers, not sure which is the source of this specific
fact- either 1) Jelley, Cerenkov Radiation and its Applications 1958 or
2)Madey Cerenkov Light Production 1964
