Abstract
The polarization of channeling radiation emitted by planar channeled electrons and positrons has been calculated using the many-beam method. The radiation was found to be almost completely polarized in the direction perpendicular to the channeling plane for emission in the forward direction. This is an exact, analytical result and holds for all instances in which the particles satisfy the conditions for planar channeling.
