Very Local Impact on the Spectrum of Cosmic-Ray Nuclei below 100 TeV
Mikhail Malkov, Igor Moskalenko, Patrick Diamond +1
Recent measurements of primary and secondary CR spectra, their arrival directions, and our improved knowledge of the magnetic field geometry around the heliosphere allow us to set…
Particle Acceleration in Colliding Flows: Binary Star Winds and Other Double-Shock Structures
Mikhail Malkov, Martin Lemoine
A shock wave propagating perpendicularly to an ambient magnetic field accelerates particles considerably faster than in the parallel propagation regime. However, the perpendicular…
Instabilities, Anomalous Heating and Stochastic Acceleration of Electrons in Colliding Plasmas
M. A. Malkov, V. I. Sotnikov
The collision of two expanding plasma clouds is investigated, emphasizing instabilities and electron energization in the plasma mixing layer. This work is directly relevant to labo…
On the origin of observed cosmic ray spectrum below 100 TV
Mikhail A. Malkov, Igor V. Moskalenko
Recent precise measurements of primary and secondary cosmic rays (CRs) in the TV rigidity domain have unveiled a bump in their spectra, located between 0.5-50 TV. We argue that a l…
The TeV Cosmic Ray Bump: a Message from Epsilon Indi or Epsilon Eridani Star?
Mikhail A. Malkov, Igor V. Moskalenko
A recently observed bump in the cosmic ray (CR) spectrum from 0.3--30 TV is likely caused by a stellar bow shock that reaccelerates \emph{preexisting} CRs, which further propagate…
Electron Energization in Quasi-Parallel Shocks: Test-Particle-Electrons in a Proton Driven Turbulence
Adrian Hanusch, Tatyana Liseykina, Mikhail Malkov
In situ observations of energetic particles at the Earth's bow-shock that are attainable by the satellite missions have long created the opinion that electrons are most efficiently…
