Particle diffusion and localized acceleration in inhomogeneous AGN jets. I. Steady-state spectra
(Oxford University Press, 2015)
We study the acceleration, transport, and emission of particles in relativistic jets. Localized stochastic particle acceleration, spatial diffusion, and synchrotron as well as synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) emission are ...
A cosmic-ray positron anisotropy due to two middle-aged, nearby pulsars?
(IOP Publishing, 2008)
Geminga and B0656+14 are the closest pulsars with characteristic ages in the range of 100 kyr to 1 Myr. They both have spin-down powers of the order 3 × 1034 ergs s–1 at present. The winds of these pulsars had most probably ...
