Inverse Compton Scattering on Solar Photons, Heliospheric Modulation, and Neutrino Astrophysics
We study the inverse Compton scattering of solar photons by Galactic cosmic-ray electrons. We show that the γ-ray emission from this process is substantial with the maximum flux in the direction of the Sun; the angular distribution of the emission is broad. This previously-neglected foreground should be taken into account in studies of the diffuse Galactic and extragalactic γ-ray emission. Furt...
متن کاملInverse Compton Scattering – Revisited
An important radiative process, used in several astrophysical contexts to generate high energy photons, is the inverse compton scattering. In this process, relativistic electrons transfer part of their kinetic energy to low energy photons thereby creating high energy photons. Conventional text book derivation (Rybicki & Lightman 1979) of this process uses the photon picture, kinematics of elect...
متن کاملInverse Compton scattering
Hard photons well above 100GeV have to be generated in a future photon collider which essentially will be based on the infrastructure of the planned International Linear Collider (ILC). The energy of near-infrared laser photons will be boosted by Compton backscattering against a high-energy relativistic electron beam. For high effectiveness, a very powerful laser system is required that exceeds...
متن کاملLow-Energy Compton Scattering of Polarized Photons on Polarized Nucleons
The general structure of the cross section of γN scattering with polarized photon and/or nucleon in initial and/or final state is systematically described and exposed through invariant amplitudes. A low-energy expansion of the cross section up to and including the order O(ω4) is given which involves ten structure parameters of the nucleon (dipole, quadrupole, dispersion, and spin polarizabiliti...
متن کاملGRB 060218/SN 2006aj: prompt emission from inverse-Compton scattering of shock breakout thermal photons
The γ-ray burst (GRB) 060218/SN 2006aj is a peculiar event, with the second lowest redshift, low luminosity, long duration, chromatic lightcurve features, and in particular, the presence of a thermal component in the X-ray and UVoptical spectra. Thanks to detailed temporal and spectral coverage of the Swift observatory, the abundant data allow the GRB prompt emission to be modelled in great det...
