In classical electrodynamics, the radiation from a non-relativistic accelerating charge can be derived using the Liénard-Wiechert potentials. For a point charge (q) moving with velocity (\mathbf{v}) much smaller than the speed of light (c), the electric field due to acceleration dominates the radiation at large distances. The instantaneous power radiated per unit solid angle is given by the Poynting vector (\mathbf{S} = \frac{c}{4\pi} \mathbf{E} \times \mathbf{B}). For non-relativistic motion, the magnetic field (\mathbf{B}) is related to (\mathbf{E}) through
