Simulations of Electromagnetic Cascades in the Intergalactic Medium with Plasma Instabilities: the grplinst Code
Rafael Alves Batista, Andrey Saveliev
Electromagnetic cascades initiated by TeV gamma rays from distant blazars provide one of the cleanest indirect probes of the intergalactic medium and, in particular, of intergalact…
CRPropa 3.3: Toward a Unified Multi-Messenger Framework from GeV to ZeV Energies
Sophie Aerdker, Rafael Alves Batista, Julia Becker Tjus +11
We present CRPropa 3.3, the latest release of the publicly available Monte Carlo framework for simulating the propagation of high-energy particles in astrophysical environments. Th…
Spectra for the Vacuum Cherenkov Effect in Astrophysical Electromagnetic Cascades with Lorentz Invariance Violation
Andrey Saveliev, Rafael Alves Batista, Feodor Mishin
Lorentz invariance violation is a feature of several quantum gravity models in which Lorentz symmetry is broken at high energies, possibly leading to changes in particle behavior a…
Spectra for Reactions in Astrophysical Electromagnetic Cascades with Lorentz Invariance Violation: The Vacuum Cherenkov Effect
Andrey Saveliev, Rafael Alves Batista, Feodor Mishin
Lorentz invariance violation is a feature of several quantum gravity models in which Lorentz symmetry is broken at high energies, leading to potential changes in particle behavior…
