The acceleration of cosmic ray by shock waves

  • 1. Max-Planck-Institut fuer Aeronomie, Katlenburg-Lindau (Germany, F.R.)

Description

The acceleration of cosmic rays in flows involving shocks and other compressional waves is considered in terms of one-dimensionl, steady flows and the diffusion approximation. The results suggest that very substantial energy conversion can occur. (author)
