The Drude model of electrical conduction has the charge carriers being accelerated by an electric field and then interacting with the lattice ions. The cycle is then repeated.
An unbound charged particle if accelerated emits electromagnetic waves.
Does that mean that a prediction of the Drude model is that when a "steady" current flows in a circuit electromagnetic waves will be emitted and does that happen in practice?
