TeV Cosmic-Ray Anisotropy from the Magnetic Field at the Heliospheric Boundary

Vanessa López-Barquero, S. Xu, P. Desiati +3

We performed numerical calculations to test the suggestion by Desiati & Lazarian (2013) that the anisotropies of TeV cosmic rays may arise from their interactions with the heliosph…

On the origin of the scatter broadening of fast radio burst pulses and astrophysical implications

Siyao Xu, Bing Zhang

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) have been identified as extragalactic sources which can make a probe of turbulence in the intergalactic medium (IGM) and their host galaxies. To account fo…

Scatter broadening of pulsars and implications on the interstellar medium turbulence

Siyao Xu, Bing Zhang

Observations reveal a uniform Kolmogorov turbulence throughout the diffuse ionized interstellar medium (ISM) and supersonic turbulence preferentially located in the Galactic plane.…

Turbulent dynamo in a conducting fluid and partially ionized gas

Siyao Xu, A. Lazarian

By following the Kazantsev theory and taking into account both microscopic and turbulent diffusion of magnetic fields, we develop a unified treatment of the kinematic and nonlinear…

Interpretation of the structure function of rotation measure in the interstellar medium

Siyao Xu, Bing Zhang

The observed structure function (SF) of rotation measure (RM) varies as a broken power-law function of angular scales. The systematic shallowness of its spectral slope is inconsist…
