Cosmic Ray Acceleration at Relativistic Shocks
Michal Ostrowski
Theoretical studies of cosmic ray particle acceleration in the first-order Fermi process at relativistic shocks are reviewed. At the beginning we discuss the acceleration processes…

Cosmic Ray Acceleration at Relativistic Plasma Flows
M. Ostrowski
Theoretical concepts ofn cosmic ray particle acceleration at relativistic plasma flows -- shocks and shear layers -- are reviewed. We begin with a discussion of mildly relativistic…
