Context: Growing observational evidence suggests that sub-relativistic astrophysical jets may accelerate particles at slowly evolving standing shocks. Recollimation shocks are expected to develop when jets expand in dense environments;…
Shocks in jets and hot spots of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are one prominent class of possible sources of very high energy cosmic ray particles (above 10^18eV). Extrapolating their spectrum to their plausible injection energy from some…
