نویسنده
چکیده
The theory of diffusive particle acceleration explains the spectral properties of the cosmic rays below energies of ≃ 10 eV as produced at strong shocks in supernova remnants (SNR’s). To supply the observed flux of cosmic rays, a significant fraction of the energy released by a supernova has to be transfered to cosmic rays. The key to the question of the efficiency of SNR’s in producing cosmic rays is the injection process from thermal energies. A self-consistent model has to take into account the interaction of the accelerated particles with magneto-hydrodynamic waves, which generate the particle diffusion, a requisite for the acceleration process. Such a nonlinear model of the turbulent background plasma has been developed recently (Malkov 1998). We use this model for the first numerical treatment of the gas dynamics and the diffusion-convection equation at a quasi-parallel strong shock, which incorporates a plasma-physical injection model to investigate the cosmic ray production.

We present low resolution spectrophotometric and imaging ISO observations of a sample of 54 AGN's over the 2.5–11 µ range. The observations generally support unification schemes and set new constraints on models of the molecular torus.

In this paper a Neural Networks based approach is presented to identify the noise in the VIRGO context. VIRGO is an experiment to detect Gravitational Waves by means of a Laser Interferometer. Preliminary results appear to be very promising for data analysis of realistic Interfer-ometer outputs.

I review the observational properties of SW Sex stars. I show that they can be explained by an accretion stream overflowing the disc, combined with an accretion disc wind. I suggest that SW Sex behaviour is caused by episodes of very high mass transfer, which are balanced by VY Scl low states.
