Production of neutrons, neutrinos and gamma-rays by a very fast pulsar in the Galactic Center region

W. Bednarek

We consider the possibility that the excess of cosmic rays near eV, reported by the AGASA and SUGAR groups from the direction of the Galactic Center, is caused by a…

Extragalactic neutrino background from very young pulsars surrounded by supernova envelopes

W. Bednarek

We estimate the extragalactic muon neutrino background which is produced by hadrons injected by very young pulsars at an early phase after supernova explosion. It is assumed that h…

Cascades in the Earth's magnetosphere initiated by photons with the parameters of the highest energy AGASA events

Wlodek Bednarek

We investigate the cascading effects of extremely high energy (EHE) photons in the Earth's magnetosphere assuming that these photons arrive with the parameters of the highest energ…

Neutrinos from Early-Phase, Pulsar-Driven Supernovae

J. H. Beall, W. Bednarek

Neutron stars, just after their formation, are surrounded by expanding, dense, and very hot envelopes which radiate thermal photons. Iron nuclei can be accelerated in the wind zone…

Test of Hadronic Interaction Models in the Forward Region with KASCADE Event Rates

KASCADE Collaboration, T. Antoni, M. Risse

An analysis of muon and hadron rates observed in the central detector of the KASCADE experiment has been carried out. The data are compared to CORSIKA simulations employing the hig…

Application of a relativistic accretion disc model to X-ray spectra of LMC X-1 and GRO J1655-40

Marek Gierlinski, Andrzej Maciolek-Niedzwiecki, Ken Ebisawa

We present a general relativistic accretion disc model and its application to the soft-state X-ray spectra of black hole binaries. The model assumes a flat, optically thick disc ar…
