متن کاملLimits on Lorentz violation from synchrotron and inverse Compton sources.
We derive new bounds on Lorentz violations in the electron sector from existing data on high-energy astrophysical sources. Synchrotron and inverse Compton data give precisely complementary constraints. The best bound on a specific combination of electron Lorentz-violating coefficients is at the 6 x 10(-20) level, and independent bounds are available for all the Lorentz-violating c coefficients ...
متن کاملThe inverse Compton catastrophe and high brightness temperature radio sources
Context. The inverse Compton catastrophe is the dramatic rise in the luminosity of inverse-Compton scattered photons predicted to occur when the synchrotron brightness temperature exceeds a threshold value, usually estimated to be 1012 K. However, this effect appears to be in contradiction with observation because: (i) the threshold is substantially exceeded by several intra-day variable radio ...
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...
