Non-linear diffusive acceleration of heavy nuclei in supernova remnant shocks
D. Caprioli, P. Blasi, E. Amato
We describe a semi-analytical approach to non-linear diffusive shock acceleration in the case in which nuclei other than protons are also accelerated. The structure of the shock is…

Polarization in Pulsar Wind Nebulae
D. Volpi, L. Del Zanna, E. Amato +1
The main goal of our present work is to provide, for the first time, a simple computational tool that can be used to compute the brightness, the spectral index, the polarization, t…
