Measuring interstellar magnetic fields by radio synchrotron emission
Rainer Beck
Radio synchrotron emission, its polarization and its Faraday rotation are powerful tools to study the strength and structure of interstellar magnetic fields. The total intensity tr…
Adiabatic expansion and magnetic fields in AGN jets
A. B. Pushkarev, Y. Y. Kovalev, A. P. Lobanov
Results of high-resolution simultaneous multi-frequency 8.1-15.4 GHz VLBA polarimetric observations of relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei (the MOJAVE-2 project) are analyz…
Probing parsec scale jets in AGN with geodetic VLBI
A. B. Pushkarev, Y. Y. Kovalev
We report on an ongoing effort to image active galactic nuclei simultaneously observed at 2.3 and 8.6 GHz in the framework of a long-term VLBI project RDV (Research and Development…
Vetoing atmospheric neutrinos in a high energy neutrino telescope
Stefan Schönert, Thomas K. Gaisser, Elisa Resconi +1
We discuss the possibility to suppress downward atmospheric neutrinos in a high energy neutrino telescope. This can be achieved by vetoing the muon which is produced by the same pa…
Steady-State Solutions in Nonlinear Diffusive Shock Acceleration
B. Reville, J. G. Kirk, P. Duffy
Stationary solutions to the equations of non-linear diffusive shock acceleration play a fundamental role in the theory of cosmic-ray acceleration. Their existence usually requires…
Capability of Cherenkov Telescopes to Observe Ultra-fast Optical Flares
C. Deil, W. Domainko, G. Hermann +4
The large optical reflector (~ 100 m^2) of a H.E.S.S. Cherenkov telescope was used to search for very fast optical transients of astrophysical origin. 43 hours of observations targ…
