One example of this occurrence is the bluish glow in the water around chemical reactors. The explanation is that the electrons from a nuclear reactor travel through the water at a rate greater than light can travel through the water. FTP, identify this type of radiation which occurs when charged particles move through a medium and a speed faster than the speed of light through said medium.
