Escape of cosmic rays from perpendicular shocks in the interstellar magnetic field

نویسندگان

چکیده

We investigate the escape process from a perpendicular shock region of spherical in interstellar medium (ISM). The diffusive acceleration supernova remnants (SNRs) has been expected to accelerate cosmic rays (CRs) PeV scale without an upstream magnetic field amplification. estimate maximum energy CRs limited by region. By performing test particle simulations, we confirm theoretical estimation, showing that escape-limited is several 10 TeV for typical type Ia SNRs. Therefore, order SNRs ISM scale, amplification needed. characteristic could be origin spectral break around TeV, which was reported recent direct CR observations. In addition, show that, free expansion phase, rapid works on about 20% area whole surface, larger than size superluminal also discuss electrons shock.

Acceleration of Cosmic Rays at Cosmic Shocks

Nonthermal particles can be produced due to incomplete thermalization at collisionless shocks and further accelerated to very high energies via diffusive shock acceleration. In a previous study we explored the cosmic ray (CR) acceleration at cosmic shocks through numerical simulations of CR modified, quasi-parallel shocks in 1D plane-parallel geometry with the physical parameters relevant for t...

On the Escape of Cosmic Rays from Radio Galaxy Cocoons

The escape rate of cosmic ray (CR) particles from radio galaxy cocoons is a problem of high astrophysical relevance: e.g. if CR electrons are stored for long times in the dilute relativistic medium filling the radio cocoons (radio plasma in the following) they are protected against Coulomb losses and thus able to produce significant non-thermal Comptonisation signature on the CMB. On the other ...

Antiprotons from spallations of cosmic rays on interstellar matter

Cosmic ray antiprotons provide an important probe for the study of the galactic Dark Matter, as they could be produced by neutralino annihilations, primordial black holes evaporations or other exotic sources. On the other hand, antiprotons are anyway produced by standard nuclear reactions of cosmic ray nuclei on interstellar matter (spallations), that are known to occur in the Galaxy. This proc...

Reconstruction of source and cosmic magnetic field characteristics from clusters of ultra-high energy cosmic rays

We present a detailed Monte Carlo study coupled to a likelihood analysis of the potential of next generation ultra-high energy cosmic ray experiments to reconstruct properties of the sources and the extra-galactic magnetic field. Such characteristics are encoded in the distributions of arrival time, direction, and energy of clusters of charged cosmic rays above a few 1019 eV. The parameters we ...

On the Motion of Cosmic Rays in Interstellar Space

The limitation of a current consisting of charged high energy particles (cosmic rays) passing through interstellar space is discussed. As interstellar matter is ionized, interstellar space is considered as a good conductor so that the electric field always equals zero. The motion of the particles is then governed by the magnetic fields produced by themselves. This sets a rather low upper limit ...
