Production of gamma-rays in blazars
W. Bednarek
Some aspects of theory of gamma-ray production in blazar type active galaxies are discussed in the context of recent observations.
Inverse Compton scattering model for gamma-ray production in Mev blazars
W. Bednarek
It is proposed that the spectra of so called 'MeV blazars' can be explained in terms of previously developed models of the external comptonization of accretion disk radiation provi…
Gamma rays and neutrinos from the Crab Nebula produced by pulsar accelerated nuclei
W. Bednarek, R. J. Protheroe
We investigate the consequences of the acceleration of heavy nuclei (e.g. iron nuclei) by the Crab pulsar. Accelerated nuclei can photodisintegrate in collisions with soft photons…
Testing the homogeneous synchrotron self Compton model for gamma ray production in Mrk 421
W. Bednarek, R. J. Protheroe
Based on the detected variability time scales of X-ray and TeV gamma-ray emission, and the observed multiwavelength photon spectrum, of Mrk 421 we place constraints on the allowed…
Gamma-Rays and Neutrinos from Very Young Supernova Remnants
R. J. Protheroe, W. Bednarek, Q. Luo
We consider the result of acceleration of heavy ions in the slot gap potential of a very young pulsar with a hot polar cap. Photodisintegration of the heavy ions in the radiation f…
