Summary:Peculiarities of polarized bremsstrahlung (PB) of relativistic electrons produced upon scattering by coupled atomic electrons are discussed; in this case, PB is regarded as scattering of virtual photons of the electromagnetic field of a fast charge by atomic electrons with their coupling taken into account. In this case, the atomic electron during scattering can acquire recoil energy only through separate portions, as a result of which the spectrum of scattered photons degenerates into a series of narrow peaks.
