Dots, clumps and filaments: the intermittent images of synchrotron emission in random magnetic fields of young supernova remnants

Andrei M. Bykov, Yury A. Uvarov, Donald C. Ellison

Non-thermal X-ray emission in some supernova remnants originates from synchrotron radiation of ultra-relativistic particles in turbulent magnetic fields. We address the effect of a…

Turbulence Dissipation and Particle Injection in Non-Linear Diffusive Shock Acceleration with Magnetic Field Amplification

Andrey E. Vladimirov, Andrei M. Bykov, Donald C. Ellison

The highly amplified magnetic fields suggested by observations of some supernova remnant (SNR) shells are most likely an intrinsic part of efficient particle acceleration by shocks…

A Cosmic Ray Resolution to the Superbubble Energy-Crisis

Yousaf M. Butt, Andrei M. Bykov

Superbubbles (SBs) are amongst the greatest injectors of energy into the Galaxy, and have been proposed to be the acceleration site of Galactic cosmic rays. They are thought to be…

Non-thermal processes in cosmological simulations

K. Dolag, A. M. Bykov, A. Diaferio

Non-thermal components are key ingredients for understanding clusters of galaxies. In the hierarchical model of structure formation, shocks and large-scale turbulence are unavoidab…
