Filamentary Jets as a Cosmic-ray “zevatron”
Strong, anisotropic turbulence reflecting magnetized filaments is considered, to model the diffusive acceleration of particles by shock waves in active galactic nucleus jets. We address that at knot A of the nearby M87 jet, the shock involving the filamentary turbulence can accelerate an iron nucleus to zetta-eV (ZeV; 10 eV) ranges. A smaller value of the particle diffusion coefficient is found...
متن کاملLife Extinctions by Cosmic Ray Jets
High energy cosmic ray jets from nearby mergers or accretion induced collapse (AIC) of neutron stars (NS) that hit the atmosphere can produce lethal fluxes of atmospheric muons at ground level, underground and underwater, destroy the ozone layer and radioactivate the environment. They could have caused most of the massive life extinctions on planet Earth in the past 600 My. Biological mutations...
متن کاملCan X-Ray Jets Be Cosmic Beacons?
If X-rays observed from any extragalactic radio jets are due to inverse Compton scattering on the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, then such a source will be detectable with the same surface brightness anywhere in the more distant universe. Chandra observations imply that such systems do exist, and will therefore serve as Cosmic Beacons out to the redshift at which they form.
متن کاملTime Delays in Cosmic Ray Propagation
Cosmic Rays (CR) travel at speeds essentially indistinguishable from the speed of light. However whilst travelling through magnetic fields, both regular and turbulent, they are delayed behind the light since they are usually charged particles and their paths are not linear. Those delays can be so long that they are an impediment to correctly identifying sources which may be variable in time. Fu...
متن کاملRemarks on Herbrand Analyses
We show that for theories T + with function parameters, in general (1) T + ` A , A =⇒ / T + ` A (even if A does not contain function parameters and T + is an open theory), where A is the Herbrand normal form of A and A is a Herbrand realization of A . A similar result holds for first order theories T if the index functions (used in the definition of A from A) are allowed to occur in instances o...
