  - 'When impinging on optical structures or passing in their vicinity, free electrons
    can spontaneously emit electromagnetic radiation, a phenomenon generally known
    as cathodoluminescence. Free-electron radiation comes in many guises: Cherenkov,
    transition, and Smith-Purcell radiation, but also electron scintillation, commonly
    referred to as incoherent cathodoluminescence. While those effects have been at
    the heart of many fundamental discoveries and technological developments in high-energy
    physics in the past century, their recent demonstration in photonic and nanophotonic
    systems has attracted a lot of attention. Those developments arose from predictions
    that exploit nanophotonics for novel radiation regimes, now becoming accessible
    thanks to advances in nanofabrication. In general, the proper design of nanophotonic
    structures can enable shaping, control, and enhancement of free-electron radiation,
    for any of the above-mentioned effects. Free-electron radiation in nanophotonics
    opens the way to promising applications, such as widely-tunable integrated light
    sources from x-ray to THz frequencies, miniaturized particle accelerators, and
    highly sensitive high-energy particle detectors. Here, we review the emerging
    field of free-electron radiation in nanophotonics. We first present a general,
    unified framework to describe free-electron light-matter interaction in arbitrary
    nanophotonic systems. We then show how this framework sheds light on the physical
    underpinnings of many methods in the field used to control and enhance free-electron
    radiation. Namely, the framework points to the central role played by the photonic
    eigenmodes in controlling the output properties of free-electron radiation (e.g.,
    frequency, directionality, and polarization). [... see full abstract in paper]@eng'
