The problem of escape: a missing bit in the theory of the origin of cosmic rays

P. Blasi, E. Amato

The escape of cosmic rays from their sources, as well as from the region surrounding a source, or from the galaxy hosting the sources, is a non-linear process that involves a compl…

Suppressed diffusion and gamma-ray emission from the Cygnus bubble

Ben Li, Pasquale Blasi, Elena Amato

Recent gamma-ray observations indicate that star clusters can be efficient particle accelerators. In particular, LHAASO has detected diffuse gamma-ray emission from Cygnus OB2 exte…

Particle acceleration at recollimation shocks in sub-relativistic jets. A model for jets in Seyfert Galaxies, Microquasars and Protostellar Systems

Enrico Peretti, Elena Amato, Silvio Sergio Cerri +3

Growing observational evidence suggests that subrelativistic (SR) astrophysical jets may accelerate particles at slowly evolving standing shocks. Recollimation shocks (RCS) are exp…

Broad Balmer line emission and cosmic ray acceleration efficiency in supernova remnant shocks

G. Morlino, P. Blasi, R. Bandiera +1

Balmer emission may be a powerful diagnostic tool to test the paradigm of cosmic ray (CR) acceleration in young supernova remnant (SNR) shocks. The width of the broad Balmer line i…
