Particle acceleration at supernova shocks in young stellar clusters

A. M. Bykov, P. E. Gladilin, S. M. Osipov

We briefly discuss models of energetic particle acceleration by supernova shock in active starforming regions at different stages of their evolution. Strong shocks may strongly amp…

Core-collapse model of broadband emission from SNR RX J1713.7-3946 with thermal X-rays and Gamma-rays from escaping cosmic rays

Donald C. Ellison, Patrick Slane, Daniel J. Patnaude +1

We present a spherically symmetric, core-collapse model of SNR RX J1713.7-3946 that includes a hydrodynamic simulation of the remnant evolution coupled to the efficient production…

Magnetic Fields, Relativistic Particles, and Shock Waves in Cluster Outskirts

M. Bruggen, A. Bykov, D. Ryu +1

It is only now, with low-frequency radio telescopes, long exposures with high-resolution X-ray satellites and gamma-ray telescopes, that we are beginning to learn about the physics…

Fundamentals of collisionless shocks for astrophysical application, 2. Relativistic shocks

A. M. Bykov, R. A. Treumann

We review recent progress on collisionless relativistic shocks. Kinetic instability theory is briefed including its predictions and limitations. The main focus is on numerical expe…

X-ray Stripes in Tycho's Supernova Remant: Synchrotron Footprints of a Nonlinear Cosmic Ray-driven Instability

A. M. Bykov, D. C. Ellison, S. M. Osipov +2

High-resolution Chandra observations of Tycho's SNR have revealed several sets of quasi-steady, high-emissivity, nearly-parallel X-ray stripes in some localized regions of the SNR.…

Cosmic rays in galactic and extragalactic magnetic fields

Felix Aharonian, Andrei Bykov, Etienne Parizot +2

We briefly review sources of cosmic rays, their composition and spectra as well as their propagation in the galactic and extragalactic magnetic fields, both regular and fluctuating…
