We model the diffusive shock acceleration of particles in a system of two colliding shock waves and present a method to solve the time-dependent problem analytically in the test-particle approximation and high energy limit. In particular,…
The relative motion of material, point-like observers is analysed in terms of coordinate maps between the respective rest-frame of each observer. Under the assumption these maps are $C^{2}$-regular, conservation laws are deduced, which in…
Presented here is the mathematical model describing the phenomenon of shock waves. The underlying concept is based on the time-space model of wave propagation.
Thermalization and heating of plasma flows at shocks result in unstable charged-particle distributions which generate a wide range of electromagnetic waves. These waves, in turn, can further accelerate and scatter energetic particles. Thus,…
Collisionless shock waves, found in supernova remnants, interstellar, stellar, and planetary environments, and laboratories, are one of nature's most powerful particle accelerators. This study combines in situ satellite measurements with…
We study a one-component quaternionic wave equation which is relativistically covariant. Bi-linear forms include a conserved 4-current and an antisymmetric second rank tensor. Waves propagate within the light-cone and there is a conserved…
We have investigated particle acceleration and shock structure associated with an unmagnetized relativistic jet propagating into an unmagnetized plasma. Strong magnetic fields generated in the trailing jet shock lead to transverse…
Diffusive shock acceleration (DSA) by relativistic shocks is thought to generate the $dN/dE\propto E^{-p}$ spectra of charged particles in various astronomical relativistic flows. We show that for test particles in one dimension (1D),…
Motion of test particles in the gravitational field associated with an electromagnetic plane wave is investigated. The interaction with the radiation field is modeled by a force term {\it \`a la} Poynting-Robertson entering the equations of…
Shock waves constitute discontinuities in matter which are relevant in studying the plasma behaviour in astrophysical scenarios and in heavy-ion collision. They can produce conical emission in relativistic collisions and are also thought to…
Relativistic current sheets have been proposed as the sites of dissipation in pulsar winds, jets in active galaxies and other Poynting-flux dominated flows. It is shown that the steady versions of these structures differ from their…
A new look at the so-called effect of an accelerating matter is presented. It was previously stated that the effect is optical in nature and consists in changing the frequency of the wave passing through a refractive sample moving with…
To address the important issue of how kinetic energy of collimated blast waves is converted into radiation, Pohl & Schlickeiser (2000) have recently investigated the relativistic two-stream instability of electromagnetic turbulence. They…
We derive the Euler-Heisenberg solutions that describe electromagnetic waves propagating through very intense uniform magnetic or electric background, with the effective metric approach. We first explore the case of a magnetic background:…
Planar travelling waves on $\mathbb R^d,$ with $ d\geq 2,$ are shown to persist in systems of reaction-diffusion equations with multiplicative noise on significantly long timescales with high probability, provided that the wave is orbitally…
We consider a reaction-diffusion equation in a one-dimensional space, where the diffusion coefficient changes sign from positive to negative and back to positive. The reaction term is bistable, with its interior zero located in the region…
Imagine a swarm of free particles near a point P outside a gravitating mass M and a free reference particle at P that is on a radial escape trajectory away from M. Relative to this reference particle and in a Fermi normal coordinate system…
Shock waves propagate in falling coupled harmonic oscillators. The bottom end of coupled harmonic oscillators does not fall downwards until a shock wave reaches the bottom end. The exact solution can be expressed by the Fourier series…
Shock wave formation and propagation in two-dimensional granular materials under vertical vibration are studied by digital high speed photography. The steepen density and temperature wave fronts form near the plate as granular layer…
We analyze the behavior of a relativistic particle moving under the influence of a uniform magnetic field and a stationary electrostatic wave. We work with a set of pulsed waves that allows us to obtain an exact map for the system. We also…
