In this investigation, the possibility of exciting synchrotron radiation in a system of highly relativistic monoenergetic electrons rotating in a cold collisionless magnetoactive plasma is discussed. For such a system of relativistic rotating electrons and background plasma, the temporal growth rate for synchrotron radiation is derived for general direction of observation. Evaluation of the growth rate is carried out for some parameters of interest. The spatial amplification rate of the wave is also deduced.
