Properties of magneto-dipole X-ray lines in different radiation models

We compare polarization properties of the cyclotron, and relativistic dipole radiation of electrons moving in the magnetic field on a helix with ultra-relativistic longitudinal and non-relativistic transverse velocity components. The applicability of these models in the case of accretion onto a neutron star is discussed. The test, based on polarization observations is suggested, to distinguish between the cyclotron, and relativistic dipole origin of features, observed in X-ray spectra of some X-ray sources, among which the Her X-1 is the most famous.
