Particle acceleration in binaries [PDF]
Cygnus X-3 massive binary system is one of the powerful sources of radio and X-ray emission consisting of an accreting compact object, probably a black hole, with a Wolf-Rayet star companion. Based on the detections of ultra high energy gamma-rays by Kiel and Havera Park, Cygnus X-3 has been proposed to be one of the most powerful sources of charged ...

Particle Acceleration Mechanisms
We review the possible mechanisms for production of non-thermal electrons which are responsible for non-thermal radiation in clusters of galaxies. Our primary focus is on non-thermal Bremsstrahlung and inverse Compton scattering, that produce hard X-ray emission.

Particle Acceleration Mechanisms [PDF]
AbstractHigh-energy particle acceleration is observed to proceed in a diverse variety of astrophysical sites ranging from the terrestrial aurorae to the most distant quasars. Particle acceleration is a fairly common channel for the release of large-scale kinetic, rotational, and magnetic energy.

Particle Acceleration in Relativistic Outflows [PDF]
In this review we confront the current theoretical understanding of particle acceleration at relativistic outflows with recent observational results on various source classes thought to involve such outflows, e.g. gamma-ray bursts, active galactic nuclei, and pulsar wind nebulae.

PARTICLE ACCELERATION BY MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC TURBULENCE [PDF]
Recent advances in understanding of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence call for revisions in the picture of particle acceleration. We make use of the recently established scaling of slow and fast MHD modes in strong and weak MHD turbulence to provide a systematic study of particle acceleration in magnetic pressure (low-$ $) and gaseous pressure ...

Safety for Particle Accelerators [PDF]
The use of non-standard technologies such as superconductivity, cryogenics and radiofrequency pose challenges for the safe operation of accelerator facilities that cannot be addressed using only best practice from occupational safety in conventional industry. This book introduces readers to different occupational safety issues at accelerator facilities

On a randomly accelerated particle [PDF]
The focus of this note is to learn more about the Kolmogorov equation describing the dynamics of a randomly accelerated particle. We first explore some existing results of the Kolmogorov equation from the stochastic and differential equation points of view and discuss its solvability with and without boundary conditions. More specifically, we introduce
