The hunt for pevatrons: The case of supernova remnants

P Cristofari - Universe, 2021 - mdpi.com
The search for Galactic pevatrons is now a well-identified key science project of all
instruments operating in the very-high-energy domain. Indeed, in this energy range, the …

Cosmic ray production in supernovae

AM Bykov, DC Ellison, A Marcowith, SM Osipov - Space Science Reviews, 2018 - Springer
We give a brief review of the origin and acceleration of cosmic rays (CRs), emphasizing the
production of CRs at different stages of supernova evolution by the first-order Fermi shock …

Where are Milky Way's hadronic PeVatrons?

T Sudoh, JF Beacom - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
Observations of the Milky Way at TeV–PeV energies reveal a bright diffuse flux of hadronic
cosmic rays and also bright point sources of gamma rays. If the gamma-ray sources are …

The highest energy HAWC sources are likely leptonic and powered by pulsars

T Sudoh, T Linden, D Hooper - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
The HAWC Collaboration has observed gamma rays at energies above 56 TeV from a
collection of nine sources. It has been suggested that this emission could be hadronic in …

Acceleration and escape processes of high-energy particles in turbulence inside hot accretion flows

SS Kimura, K Tomida, K Murase - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2019 - academic.oup.com
We investigate acceleration and propagation processes of high-energy particles inside hot
accretion flows. The magnetorotational instability (MRI) creates turbulence inside accretion …

Fermi/LAT counterparts of IceCube neutrinos above 100 TeV

Ultra high energy cosmic rays from past activity of Andromeda galaxy

VN Zirakashvili, VS Ptuskin… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
It is shown that the relativistic jets associated with the growth and past activity of the
supermassive black hole in the Andromeda galaxy could be the main source of cosmic rays …

Identifying Galactic sources of high-energy neutrinos

A Kheirandish - Astrophysics and Space Science, 2020 - Springer
High-energy neutrinos present the ultimate signature for a cosmic ray accelerator. Galactic
sources responsible for acceleration of cosmic ray up to the knee in cosmic ray spectrum will …

Pevatron at the Galactic Center: multi-wavelength signatures from millisecond pulsars

C Guépin, L Rinchiuso, K Kotera… - … of Cosmology and …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
Diffuse TeV emission has been observed by HESS in the Galactic Center region, in addition
to the GeV gamma rays observed by Fermi. We propose that a population of unresolved …
