Cosmic ray driven dynamo in galactic disks . A parameter study
Aims. We present a parameter study of the magnetohydrodynamical dynamo driven by cosmic rays in the interstellar medium (ISM) focusing on the efficiency of magnetic field amplification and the issue of energy equipartition between magnetic, kinetic and cosmic
متن کاملAmplification of Galactic Magnetic Fields by the Cosmic-Ray Driven Dynamo
We present the first numerical model of the magnetohydrodynamical cosmic-ray (CR) driven dynamo of the type proposed by Parker (1992). The driving force of the amplification process comes from CRs injected into the galactic disk in randomly distributed spherical regions representing supernova remnants. The underlying disk is differentially rotating. An explicit resistivity is responsible for th...
متن کاملConvection in galaxy cluster plasmas driven by active galactic nuclei and cosmic ray buoyancy
Turbulent heating may play an important role in galaxy-cluster plasmas, but if turbulent heating is to balance radiative cooling in a quasi-steady state, some mechanism must regulate the turbulent velocity so that it is neither too large nor too small. This paper explores one possible regulating mechanism associated with an active galactic nucleus at cluster center. A steady-state model for the...
متن کاملThe galactic cosmic ray ionization rate.
The chemistry that occurs in the interstellar medium in response to cosmic ray ionization is summarized, and a review of the ionization rates that have been derived from measurements of molecular abundances is presented. The successful detection of large abundances of H(3)(+) in diffuse clouds and the recognition that dissociative recombination of H(3)(+) is fast has led to an upward revision o...
متن کاملThe Revival of Galactic Cosmic Ray Nucleosynthesis?
Because of the roughly linear correlation between Be/H and Fe/H in low metallicity halo stars, it has been argued that a “primary” component in the nucleosynthesis of Be must be present in addition to the “secondary” component from standard Galactic cosmic ray nucleosynthesis. In this paper we critically re-evaluate the evidence for the primary versus secondary character of Li, Be, and B evolut...
