Ultrahigh Energy Activity in Giant Magnetar Outbursts
David Eichler
The recent superflare of 27 December 2004 from the magnetar SGR 1806-20 was the brightest extrasolar flash ever recorded in the modern era. The chances for seeing exotic ultrahigh…
Galactic Positrons From Localized Sources
David Eichler, Irit Maor
The anomalous bump in the cosmic ray positron to electron ratio at can be explained as being a component from a point source that was originally harder than the primary el…
Photon Pickup by Intense Poynting Flows
David Eichler
It is suggested that a Poynting flux-dominated outflow with a sufficiently strong magnetic field can pick up hard X-ray photons when the magnetic field is of sufficient strength. T…
Ultrahigh Energy Neutrals from Extreme Magnetic Flares
David Eichler
It is shown that bulk acceleration during reconnection of extremely strong magnetic fields near compact objects can accelerate ions to Lorentz factors of under…
Optical SETI with Air Cerenkov Telescopes
David Eichler, Gregory Beskin
We propose using large Air Cerenkov Telescopes (ACT's) to search for optical, pulsed signals from extra-terrestrial intelligence. Such dishes collect tens of photons from a nanosec…
Formation of the Planetary Sequence in a Highly Flattened Disk of Frequently Colliding Planetesimals
Evgeny Griv, Michael Gedalin, Edward Liverts +2
The kinetic theory is used to study the evolution of the self-gravitating disk of planetesimals. The effects of frequent collisions between planetesimals are taken into account by…
