Theory predicts that Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) in electron storage rings should appear in whispering gallery modes. In an idealized model these are resonances of the vacuum chamber that are characterized by their high frequencies and concentration of the field near the outer wall of the chamber. The resonant modes imply a series of sharp peaks in the frequency spectrum of CSR, and very long wake fields which lead to interbunch communication. Theory and experimental evidence for this behavior will be reviewed.
