Cosmic Radio Jets
Extragalactic radio sources, including quasars, are now typically understood as being produced by a pair of nearly symmetric, oppositely directed relativistic jets. While some these sources span megaparsecs, and are thus the largest physically connected structures in the universe, emitting regions identified as jets have now been found on all scales down to fractions of a parsec, and jets appea...
متن کاملFilamentary Jets as a Cosmic-ray “zevatron”
Strong, anisotropic turbulence reflecting magnetized filaments is considered, to model the diffusive acceleration of particles by shock waves in active galactic nucleus jets. We address that at knot A of the nearby M87 jet, the shock involving the filamentary turbulence can accelerate an iron nucleus to zetta-eV (ZeV; 10 eV) ranges. A smaller value of the particle diffusion coefficient is found...
متن کاملLife Extinctions by Cosmic Ray Jets
High energy cosmic ray jets from nearby mergers or accretion induced collapse (AIC) of neutron stars (NS) that hit the atmosphere can produce lethal fluxes of atmospheric muons at ground level, underground and underwater, destroy the ozone layer and radioactivate the environment. They could have caused most of the massive life extinctions on planet Earth in the past 600 My. Biological mutations...
متن کاملCan X-Ray Jets Be Cosmic Beacons?
If X-rays observed from any extragalactic radio jets are due to inverse Compton scattering on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, then such a source will be detectable with the same surface brightness anywhere in the more distant universe. Chandra observations imply that such systems do exist, and will therefore serve as Cosmic Beacons out to the redshift at which they form.
متن کاملDesigning and Manufacturing the Multiple Jets Simulator and Experimental Investigation of the Multiple Jets in Crossflow
Designing and manufacturing the multiple jets simulator and experimental investigation of the multiple jets in crossflow at low velocity ratios have been studied Together with design and build a low-speed wind tunnel. A specific rake is used to determine the flow field pressure and changes in static pressure measured by pressure taps in the near field of the jets. There are generally three regi...
