Simulations of Ion Acceleration at Non-relativistic Shocks. I. Acceleration Efficiency
Damiano Caprioli, Anatoly Spitkovsky
We use 2D and 3D hybrid (kinetic ions - fluid electrons) simulations to investigate particle acceleration and magnetic field amplification at non-relativistic astrophysical shocks.…

From E. Fermi to Fermi-LAT: watching particle acceleration in supernova remnants
Damiano Caprioli
Supernova remnants (SNRs) have been regarded for many decades as the sources of Galactic cosmic rays (CRs) up to a few PeV. However, only with the advent of Fermi-LAT it has been p…

New insights on hadron acceleration at supernova remnant shocks
Damiano Caprioli
We outline the main features of nuclei acceleration at supernova remnant forward shocks, stressing the crucial role played by self-amplified magnetic fields in determining the ener…
