This implies that in general one can not bypass a tedious calculation involving explicit regularization and evaluation of emerging counterterms. However, simple Kosyakov's method works nicely in any dimension for the special case of circular motion with constant angular velocity.10 pagesHigh Energy Physics - TheoryGeneral Relativity and Quantum CosmologyOn the Problem of Radiation Friction Beyond 4 and 6 Dimensionstext
