Plasma-based wakefield accelerators as sources of axion-like particles
We estimate the average flux density of minimally-coupled axion-like particles generated by a laserdriven plasma wakefield propagating along a constant strong magnetic field. Our calculations suggest that a terrestrial source based on this approach could generate a pulse of axion-like particles whose flux density is comparable to that of solar axion-like particles at Earth. This mechanism is op...
متن کاملHigh energy particles from cosmic sources
In this review it will be attempted to briefly cover some of the recent developments in the observation of photons and neutrinos to constrain models on the origin and acceleration of cosmic rays. It appears that EGRET on board of CGRO provides most valuable new data in that context. Data from high energy airshower arrays and Tscherenkov telescopes add to the picture although not yet strong enou...
متن کاملAcceleration of ultra-high energy cosmic ray particles in relativistic jets in extragalactic radio sources
A mechanism of ultra-high energy cosmic ray acceleration in extragalactic radio sources, at the interface between the relativistic jet and the surrounding medium, is discussed as a supplement to the shock acceleration in ‘hot spots’. Due to crossing the tangential discontinuity of the velocity the particle can gain an amount of energy comparable to the energy gain at the shock crossing. However...
متن کامل1 Ultra high energy cosmic rays from extragalactic astrophysical sources : energy losses and spectra
The energy losses and spectra of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) are calculated for protons as primary particles. The attention is given to the energy losses due to electron-positron production in collisions with the microwave 2.73 K photons. The energy spectra are calculated for several models, which differ by production spectra and by source distribution, namely: (i) Uniform distributio...
