UHECR Production by a Compact Black-Hole Dynamo: Application to Sgr A*
Amir Levinson, Elihu Boldt
The possibility that the excess cosmic ray (CR) flux near 10 eV, reported recently by the AGASA group, is due to a compact black hole dynamo associated with the Sgr A* sourc…
UHECR Production and Curvature TeV Emission in Nearby, Dormant AGNs
Amir Levinson
The possibility that rapidly rotating supermassive black holes associated with quasar remnants may provide sites for the acceleration of ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) is c…
A Note on TeV Cerenkov Events as Bose-Einstein Gamma Condensations
Amir Levinson
The idea that the TeV air showers, thought to be produced by >10 TeV gamma rays from Mrk 501, can be mimicked by coherent bunches of sub-TeV photons is reexamined, focusing on fund…
TeV Emission by Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays in Nearby, Dormant AGNs
Amir Levinson
The curvature radiation produced by particles accelerating near the event horizon of a spinning supermassive black hole, threaded by externally supported magnetic field lines is co…
On the Viewing Angle Dependence of Blazar Variability
Avigdor Eldar, Amir Levinson
Internal shocks propagating through an ambient radiation field, are subject to a radiative drag that, under certain conditions, can significantly affect their dynamics and, consequ…
