Spherical accretion onto neutron stars and black holes
L. Titarchuk, A. Mastichiadis, N. D. Kylafis
Spectral formation in steady state, spherical accretion onto neutron stars and black holes is examined by solving numerically and analytically the equation of radiative transfer. T…
Constraints on the VHE Emissivity of the Universe from the Diffuse GeV Gamma-Ray Background
P. S. Coppi, F. A. Aharonian
VHE (Very High Energy, E>100 GeV) radiation emitted at cosmological distances will pair produce on low-energy diffuse extragalactic background radiation before ever reaching us. Th…
Variability in the synchrotron self-Compton model of blazar emission
A. Mastichiadis, J. G. Kirk
We present a model of the spectra of gamma-ray emitting blazars in which a single homogeneous emission region both emits synchrotron photons directly and scatters them to high (gam…
Detection of VHE Gamma-rays from Mkn 421 with the HEGRA Cherenkov Telescopes
D. Petry, S. M. Bradbury, A. Konopelko +1
A detection of Gamma-rays from Mkn 421 at energies above 1 TeV is reported, based on observations made in December 1994 - May 1995 with the first two HEGRA Cherenkov telescopes. >F…
TeV emission from SN 1006
A. Mastichiadis, O. C. de Jager
Supernova 1006 is the first shell type supernova remnant to show evidence of particle acceleration to TeV energies. In the present paper we examine this possibility by modeling the…
Measuring the UHE cosmic-ray composition with tracking detectors in air shower arrays
Konrad Bernlöhr
Measuring the angles of muons and electrons in air showers is proposed as a method for studying the primary cosmic-ray mass composition near the knee of the cosmic-ray energy spect…
The FIR/radio correlation in starburst galaxies - constraints on starburst models
U. Lisenfeld, H. J. Voelk, C. Xu
This paper presents an analysis of the correlation between the far-infrared (FIR) and the radio emission of starburst galaxies. Data for interacting galaxies, many of which are und…
Stochastic particle acceleration at shocks in the presence of braided magnetic fields
J. G. Kirk, P. Duffy, Y. A. Gallant
The theory of diffusive acceleration of energetic particles at shock fronts assumes charged particles undergo spatial diffusion in a uniform magnetic field. If, however, the magnet…
A quantitative model of the FIR/radio correlation for normal late-type galaxies
U. Lisenfeld, H. J. Voelk, C. Xu
This paper investigates the physical reasons for the existence, the tightness and the near universality of the FIR/radio correlation for late-type field galaxies. We develop theore…
On the high energy non-thermal emission from shell-type supernova remnants
A. Mastichiadis
Shock waves associated with shell type supernova remnants are considered to be possible sites of cosmic ray acceleration. Since shocks are capable of accelerating electrons in addi…
On the production of very high energy beamed gamma-rays in blazars
W. Bednarek, J. G. Kirk, A. Mastichiadis
The variable flux of TeV gamma-rays detected from Mkn 421 and Mkn 501 requires the presence of high energy electrons, which could in principle produce large numbers of electron/pos…
