Cosmic ray acceleration by shocks: spectral steepening due to turbulent magnetic field amplification
arXiv:1906.12240 · doi:10.1093/mnras/stz1805
Abstract
We show that the energy required to turbulently amplify magnetic field during cosmic ray (CR) acceleration by shocks extracts energy from the CR and steepens the CR energy spectrum.
