Implications of turbulence-dependent diffusion on cosmic-ray spectra

J. Dörner, P. Reichherzer, L. Merten +4

The propagation of cosmic rays can be described as a diffusive motion in most galactic environments. High-energy gamma-rays measured by Fermi have allowed inference of a gradient i…

FR-0 jetted active galaxies: extending the zoo of candidate sites for UHECR acceleration

Lukas Merten, Margot Boughelilba, Anita Reimer +6

Fanaroff-Riley (FR) 0 radio galaxies form a low-luminosity extension to the well-established ultra-high-energy cosmic-ray (UHECR) candidate accelerators FR-1 and FR-2 galaxies. The…

CRPropa 3.2: a framework for high-energy astroparticle propagation

Rafael Alves Batista, Julia Becker Tjus, Julien Dörner +14

The landscape of high- and ultra-high-energy astrophysics has changed in the last decade, in large part owing to the inflow of high-quality data collected by present cosmic-ray, ga…

Scrutinizing FR 0 Radio Galaxies as Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Ray Source Candidates

Lukas Merten, Margot Boughelilba, Anita Reimer +6

Fanaroff-Riley (FR) 0 radio galaxies compose a new class of radio galaxies, which are usually weaker but much more numerous than the well-established class of FR 1 and FR 2 galaxie…

Closing in on the origin of Galactic cosmic rays using multimessenger information

Julia Becker Tjus, Lukas Merten

In cosmic ray physics extensive progress has been made in recent years, both concerning theory and observation. The vast details in direct, indirect and secondary detections on the…

Turbulence-Level Dependence of Cosmic-Ray Parallel Diffusion

P. Reichherzer, J. Becker Tjus, E. G. Zweibel +2

Understanding the transport of energetic cosmic rays belongs to the most challenging topics in astrophysics. Diffusion due to scattering by electromagnetic fluctuations is a key pr…
