Context
and Background: The product of the electromagnetic (EM) wave’s
power P times its period τ, i.e.Pτ, is the amount of energy conserved
in EM wave’s absorption in matter. Whether Pτ is the amount of energy conserved in the emission of EM waves from matter is
not assessed. Motivation: In this research,
we perform a computational study to explore the ability of Pτto represent the
amount of energy conserved in EM wave’s emission from matter. Hypothesis: Since the magnitude of the power P of
emitted EM waves computed through Larmor’s formula for a rotating dipole is
excessively small, we alternatively hypothesize that Pτ and the law of conservation of energy can lead to a realistic
estimation of P. Methods: We
estimate the power PAME of
the anomalous microwave emission (AME), a well-characterized radiation
generated in the interstellar medium (ISM) by spinning dust grains, and one possible source of contamination of the cosmic
microwave background (CMB). For our estimation of
