Particle Acceleration at Multiple Internal Relativistic Shocks
Relativistic shocks provide an efficient method for high-energy particle acceleration in many astrophysical sources. Multiple shock systems are even more effective and of importance, for example, in the internal shock model of gamma-ray bursts. We investigate the reacceleration of pre-existing energetic particles at such relativistic internal shocks by the first order Fermi process of pitch ang...
متن کاملSupernova remnant dynamics and particle acceleration in elliptical galaxies
Spherically symmetric numerical models of supernova remnants (SNRs) evolving from the initial explosion up to their final dispersal within the interstellar medium (ISM) and exploding into a tenuous and hot plasma are presented. The parameters of the exploding stars are typical for an old stellar population (Type I SNe) and the external medium is characterized by a temperature between 106K and 3...

متن کاملDynamics of relativistic particle with Lagrangian dependent on acceleration
Models of relativistic particle with Lagrangian L(k1), depending on the curvature of the worldline k1, are considered. By making use of the Frenet basis, the equations of motion are reformulated in terms of the principal curvatures of the worldline. It is shown that for arbitrary Lagrangian function L(k1) these equations are completely integrable, i.e., the principal curvatures are defined by i...
متن کاملParticle acceleration and relativistic shocks
Observations of both gamma-ray burst sources and certain classes of active galaxy indicate the presence of relativistic shock waves and require the production of high energy particles to explain their emission. In this paper we first review the basic theory of shock waves in relativistic hydrodynamics and magneto-hydrodynamics, emphasising the astrophysically interesting cases. This is followed...
