Undiscovered pulsar in the Local Bubble as an explanation of the local high energy cosmic ray all-electron spectrum
R. López-Coto, R. D. Parsons, J. A. Hinton +1
Cosmic ray electrons and positrons are tracers of particle propagation in the interstellar medium (ISM). A recent measurement performed using H.E.S.S. extends the all-electron (ele…
Constraints on the properties of the turbulent magnetic field around Geminga using HAWC measurements
Gwenael Giacinti, Rubén López-Coto
We place constraints on the properties of the interstellar turbulence that surrounds Geminga pulsar, using the recent measurements from the HAWC Observatory in this region. We prop…
TeV-PeV Cosmic-Ray Anisotropy and Local Interstellar Turbulence
Gwenael Giacinti, John G. Kirk
We calculate the shape of the large-scale anisotropy of TeV-PeV cosmic-rays (CR) in different models of the interstellar turbulence. In general, the large-scale CR anisotropy (CRA)…
Core collapse supernovae as Cosmic Ray sources
Alexandre Marcowith, Vikram Dwarkadas, Matthieu Renaud +2
Core collapse supernovae (CCSNe) produce fast shocks which pervade the dense circum-stellar medium (CSM) of the stellar progenitor. Cosmic rays (CRs) if accelerated at these shocks…
Acceleration of X-ray Emitting Electrons in the Crab Nebula
Gwenael Giacinti, John G. Kirk
We study particle acceleration at the termination shock of a striped pulsar wind by integrating trajectories in a prescribed model of the magnetic field and flow pattern. Drift mot…
