Supernova explosions of massive stars and cosmic rays
P. L. Biermann, J. Becker Tjus, W. de Boer +11
Most cosmic ray particles observed derive from the explosions of massive stars, which commonly produce stellar black holes in their supernova explosions. When two such black holes…
Extragalactic circuits, transmission lines, and CR particle acceleration
Philipp P. Kronberg, Richard V. E. Lovelace
A non-negligible fraction of a Supermassive Black Hole's (SMBH) rest mass energy gets transported into extragalactic space by a remarkable process in jets which are incompletely un…
Transmission Line Analogy for Relativistic Poynting-Flux Jets
R. V. E. Lovelace, P. P. Kronberg
Radio emission, polarization, and Faraday rotation maps of the radio jet of the galaxy 3C 303 have shown that one knot of this jet carries a {\it galactic}-scale electric current a…
The Centaurus A Ultrahigh-Energy Cosmic Ray Excess and the Local Extragalactic Magnetic Field
Hasan Yuksel, Todor Stanev, Matthew D. Kistler +1
The ultrahigh-energy cosmic-ray anisotropies discovered by the Pierre Auger Observatory give the potential to finally address both the particles' origins and properties of the near…
Relativistic Poynting-Flux Jets as Transmission Lines
R. V. E. Lovelace, S. Dyda, P. P. Kronberg
Recent radio emission, polarization, and Faraday rotation maps of the radio jet of the galaxy 3C 303 have shown that one knot of this jet has a {\it galactic}-scale electric curren…
Cosmic magnetic fields and implications for HE particle anisotropies
Philipp P. Kronberg
I review what is known and surmised about magnetic fields in space, from our Milky Way environment to the distant Universe beyond the GZK horizon. This includes our gradually impro…
