Electrostatic Potentials in Supernova Remnant Shocks
Recent advances in the understanding of the properties of supernova remnant shocks have been precipitated by the Chandra and XMM X-ray Observatories, and the HESS Atmospheric Čerenkov Telescope in the TeV band. A critical problem for this field is the understanding of the relative degree of dissipative heating/energization of electrons and ions in the shock layer. This impacts the interpretatio...

متن کاملSurfatron and stochastic acceleration of electrons at supernova remnant shocks.
The surfatron offers the possibility of particle acceleration to arbitrarily high energies, given a sufficiently large system. Surfatron acceleration of electrons by waves excited by ions reflected from supernova remnant (SNR) shocks is investigated using particle simulations. It is shown that surfatron and stochastic acceleration could provide a seed population for the acceleration of cosmic r...
متن کاملPulsar/Supernova Remnant Associations
Pulsar/Supernova Remnant Associations Vicky Kaspi Infrared Processing & Analysis Center, Jet Propulsion Laboratory/ California Institute of Technology Since the discovery of the first pulsar/supernova remnant association not long after the discover of pulsars themselves, the number of proposed associations has grown to nearly 20. In this talk we will critically review the known and proposed sup...
متن کاملClouds and Instabilities in Supernova Remnant Structure: Interstellar Turbulence and Rippled Shocks
The beautiful spherical blastwaves of theory are disrupted by interaction with density inhomogeneities and by thermal and dynamical instabilities. Various tricks, involving either Doppler shift velocities or model assumptions, make it possible to construct a 3-D picture of the structure from a 2-D image. This paper will discuss the expected nature of the density inhomogeneities and the conseque...
