Particle acceleration and non-thermal broadband spectrum of extended shocked outflows in black hole binary V4641 Sgr - a galactic pevatron
Andrei Bykov, Sergei Osipov, Vadim Romansky +2
Stellar mass black holes accreting at a super-Eddington rate produce strong outflows and non-thermal radiation up to PeV energy. Recently, very high energy (VHE) emission was disco…
X-ray polarization: A view deep inside cosmic ray driven turbulence and particle acceleration in supernova remnants
Andrei. M. Bykov, Sergei. M. Osipov, Yury. A. Uvarov +2
We show here that highly polarized X-ray synchrotron radiation from young supernova remnants (SNRs) can be modeled within the framework of diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) and no…
Particle Acceleration in Mildly Relativistic Outflows of Fast Energetic Transient Sources
Andrei Bykov, Vadim Romansky, Sergei Osipov
Recent discovery of fast blue optical transients (FBOTs) as a new class of energetic transient sources can shed light on the long-standing problem of supernova-long gamma-ray burst…
A nonlinear Monte Carlo model of super-diffusive shock acceleration with magnetic field amplification
Andrei M. Bykov, Donald C. Ellison, Sergei M. Osipov
Fast collisionless shocks in cosmic plasmas convert their kinetic energy flow into the hot downstream thermal plasma with a substantial fraction of energy going into a broad spectr…
Magnetic field amplification in nonlinear diffusive shock acceleration including resonant and non-resonant cosmic-ray driven instabilities
Andrei M. Bykov, Donald C. Ellison, Sergei M. Osipov +1
We present a nonlinear Monte Carlo model of efficient diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) where the magnetic turbulence responsible for particle diffusion is calculated self-consist…
X-ray Stripes in Tycho's Supernova Remant: Synchrotron Footprints of a Nonlinear Cosmic Ray-driven Instability
A. M. Bykov, D. C. Ellison, S. M. Osipov +2
High-resolution Chandra observations of Tycho's SNR have revealed several sets of quasi-steady, high-emissivity, nearly-parallel X-ray stripes in some localized regions of the SNR.…
