It is well known that, in the bremsstrahlung formula derived by Birmingham and Dawson, the screening effects of ions on the fields were discarded. It is unapt to do so. In this paper a corrected formula, including the polarization effects of ionic fields, is derived. In many cases, the screening effects of ions can considerably reduce the energy of the bremsstrahlung.
