However, the treatment of complex situations Received in revised form 9 March 2015 requires the usage of a more general approach. In this report we present a C++ routine, named Accepted 10 March 2015 RADCHARM++, to compute the electromagnetic radiation emitted by electrons and positrons in crystals Available online 25 March 2015 and complex structures. In the RADCHARM++ routine, the model for the computation of e.m. radiation generation is based on the direct integration of the quasiclassical formula of Baier and Katkov. This Keywords:
