Observations of Selected AGN with H.E.S.S
F. Aharonian et al.
A sample of selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) was observed in 2003 and 2004 with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.), an array of imaging atmospheric-Cherenkov teles…
Primary Energy Spectra and Elemental Composition. GAMMA Experiment
S. V. Ter-Antonyan, R. M. Martirosov, A. P. Garyaka +6
On the basis of the Extensive Air Shower data observed by the GAMMA experiment the energy spectra and elemental composition of the primary cosmic rays have been derived in the 1-10…
A wind model for high energy pulses
J. G. Kirk, O. Skjaeraasen, Y. A. Gallant
A solution to the sigma problem - that of finding a mechanism capable of converting Poynting energy flux to particle-borne energy flux in a pulsar wind - was proposed several years…
Particle Acceleration at Relativistic Shocks
Yves A. Gallant
I review the current status of Fermi acceleration theory at relativistic shocks. I first discuss the relativistic shock jump conditions, then describe the non-relativistic Fermi me…
Rejuvenating the shells of supernova remnants by pulsar winds
Eric van der Swaluw, Abraham Achterberg, Yves A. Gallant
We reconsider the rejuvenation mechanism as proposed by Shull, Fesen, & Saken (1989). These authors suggest that an active pulsar can catch up with, and rejuvenate the shell of the…
Modelling Plerion Spectra and their Evolution
Yves A. Gallant, Eric van der Swaluw, John G. Kirk +1
We review recent theoretical developments on pulsar winds, their nebulae and relativistic shock acceleration, and show how they illuminate unsolved problems in plerion spectra, in…
