We describe both analytically and numerically beams radiation in presence of media which can be realized as modern metamaterials. In particular, effects of reversed Cherenkov radiation (RCR)* and reversed Cherenkov-transition radiation (RCTR)** are considered. These phenomena can be used for detection of charged particles and diagnostics of beams. Earlier we noted some useful properties of radiation in the case of the boundary between an ordinary medium and an isotropic left-handed metamaterial (LHM)*. Now we continue to analyze prospects of use of LHM for beam diagnostics. Moreover, we investigate RCR and RCTR in the case of certain anisotropic materials with properties being similar to properties of LHM. The useful features are reversed character of radiation and, particularly, existence of two thresholds for RCTR (lower threshold and upper one). This fact allows selection of particles (or beams) with energy in some predetermined range. The specific radiation patterns (having two or three lobes in anisotropic metamaterial) can be useful for particle energy measurement as well.
