Proton Acceleration with Relativistic Electromagnetic Shock

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
New Ion Acceleration Mechanism! A novel cosmic‐ray proton acceleration mechanism is proposed, where relativistic electromagnetic shocks accelerate protons transversely. Hamiltonian analysis yields a scaling law linking the proton energy to the minimum longitudinal thickness of the shock.

Galactic Cosmic Rays: The first detection of TeV gamma-rays from Red Dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2019

Impact of Cosmic Ray Transport on Galactic Winds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The role of cosmic rays generated by supernovae and young stars has very recently begun to receive significant attention in studies of galaxy formation and evolution due to the realization that cosmic rays can efficiently accelerate galactic winds. Microscopic cosmic ray transport processes are fundamental for determining the efficiency of cosmic ray ...

Impact of transport modelling on the $^{60}$Fe abundance inside Galactic cosmic ray sources [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The ACE-CRIS collaboration has recently released the measurement of radioactive $^{60}$Fe nuclei abundance in Galactic Cosmic Rays, in the energy range $\sim 195-500$ MeV per nucleon. We model Cosmic Ray propagation and derive from this measurement the $^{60}$Fe/$^{56}$Fe ratio that is expected in the sources of Galactic Cosmic Rays. We describe Cosmic

OBSERVATION OF SMALL-SCALE ANISOTROPY IN THE ARRIVAL DIRECTION DISTRIBUTION OF TeV COSMIC RAYS WITH HAWC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) Observatory is sensitive to gamma rays and charged cosmic rays at TeV energies. The detector is still under construction, but data acquisition with the partially deployed detector started in 2013.

Radiation Hardened Infrared Photodetectors Based on a Narrow Bandgap Conjugated Polymer Semiconductor

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A blackbody‐sensitive infrared photodetector comprised of an open‐shell conjugated polymer demonstrates high sensitivity without cooling and exceptional radiation hardness, surpassing inorganic compound semiconductor devices. This functionality, inherent to the polymer semiconductor, provides a new frontier for low‐cost, size, weight, and power space ...

The origin of galactic cosmic rays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Initial discovery of Cosmic Rays (CRs) dates back to a century ago (1912). Their identification as particles rather than radiation dates to about 20 years later and in 20 more years also the first suggestion that they were associated with SNRs was in ...
