Non linear particle acceleration at non-relativistic shock waves in the presence of self-generated turbulence
Particle acceleration at astrophysical shocks may be very efficient if magnetic scattering is self-generated by the same particles. This nonlinear process adds to the nonlinear modification of the shock due to the dynamical reaction of the accelerated particles on the shock. Building on a previous general solution of the problem of particle acceleration with arbitrary diffusion coefficients (Am...
متن کاملA general solution to non-linear particle acceleration at non-relativistic shock waves
Diffusive acceleration at collisionless shock waves remains one of the most promising acceleration mechanisms for the description of the origin of cosmic rays at all energies. A crucial ingredient to be taken into account is the reaction of accelerated particles on the shock, which in turn determines the efficiency of the process. Here we propose a semi-analytical kinetic method that allows us ...
متن کاملParticle acceleration at a dynamic termination shock
[1] We investigate the effects of a large-scale interplanetary disturbance, such as a merged interaction region (MIR), on the properties of the heliospheric termination shock and particle population accelerated at the shock. The interaction process between transient structures and the shock is reflected in energetic particle spectra through variability in shock location, its compression ratio, ...
متن کاملParticle Acceleration at High-γ Shock Waves
First-order Fermi acceleration processes at ultrarelativistic (γ ∼ 5-30) shocks are studied with the method of Monte Carlo simulations. The accelerated particle spectra are obtained by integrating the exact particle trajectories in a turbulent magnetic field near the shock. The magnetic field model assumes finite-amplitude perturbations within a wide wavevector range and with a predefined wave ...
متن کاملNon-linear Particle Acceleration in Oblique Shocks
The solution of the non-linear diffusive shock acceleration problem, where the pressure of the non-thermal population is sufficient to modify the shock hydrodynamics, is widely recognized as a key to understanding particle acceleration in a variety of astrophysical environments. We have developed a Monte Carlo technique for self-consistently calculating the hydrodynamic structure of oblique, st...
