Collisionless shocks in a partially ionized medium: III. Efficient cosmic ray acceleration
G. Morlino, P. Blasi, R. Bandiera +2
In this paper we present the first formulation of the theory of non-linear particle acceleration in collisionless shocks in the presence of neutral hydrogen in the acceleration reg…
Collisionless shock in a partially ionized medium. II. Balmer emission
G. Morlino, R. Bandiera, P. Blasi +1
Strong shocks propagating into a partially ionized medium are often associated with optical Balmer lines. This emission is due to impact excitation of neutral hydrogen by hot proto…
Nonlinear shock acceleration and gamma-ray emission from Tycho and Kepler
G. Morlino, D. Caprioli
We apply the non-linear diffusive shock acceleration theory in order to describe the properties of two supernova remnants, SN 1572 (Tycho) and SN 1604 (Kepler). By analyzing the mu…
Particle acceleration around SNR shocks
Giovanni Morlino
We review the basic features of particle acceleration theory around collisionless shocks in supernova remnants (SNRs). We show how non linear effects induced by the back reaction o…
Collisionless shocks in a partially ionized medium: I. Neutral return flux and its effects on acceleration of test particles
P. Blasi, G. Morlino, R. Bandiera +2
A collisionless shock may be strongly modified by the presence of neutral atoms through the processes of charge exchange between ions and neutrals and ionization of the latter. The…
