Core-collapse Supernovae as Cosmic Ray Sources
V. Dwarkadas, A. Marcowith, M. Renaud +2
Core-collapse supernovae produce fast shocks which expand into the dense circumstellar medium (CSM) of the stellar progenitor. Cosmic rays (CRs) accelerated at these shocks can ind…
Combined Dark Matter searches towards dwarf spheroidal galaxies with Fermi-LAT, HAWC, HESS, MAGIC and VERITAS
Louise Oakes, Celine Armand, Eric Charles +13
The search for Dark Matter (DM) has great potential to reveal physics beyond the Standard Model. As such, searches for evidence of DM particles are being carried out using a wide r…
Electron Acceleration in the Crab Nebula
Gwenael Giacinti, John G. Kirk
We study electron and positron acceleration at the termination shock of a striped pulsar wind. Drift motion along the shock surface keeps either electrons or positrons -but not bot…
HAWC Contributions to the 36th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC2019)
A. U. Abeysekara, A. Albert, R. Alfaro +127
List of proceedings from the HAWC Collaboration presented at the 36th International Cosmic Ray Conference, 24 July - 1 August 2019, Madison, Wisconsin, USA.
Inductive acceleration of ions in Poynting-flux dominated outflows
John G. Kirk, Gwenael Giacinti
Two-fluid (electron-positron) plasma modelling has shown that inductive acceleration can convert Poynting flux directly into bulk kinetic energy in the relativistic flows driven by…
Numerical Simulations of Cosmic-Ray Acceleration at Core-Collapse Supernovae
Gwenael Giacinti, Vikram Dwarkadas, Alexandre Marcowith +1
Core-collapse supernovae exploding in dense winds are favorable sites for cosmic-ray (CR) acceleration to very high energies. We present our CR-radiation-hydrodynamics simulations…
