Particle Acceleration Theory, Interstellar Gas Dynamics and Plasma Astrophysics
In very many astronomical systems, ranging in scale from planetary magnetospheres to clusters of galaxies, we see evidence of charged particles with energies very much higher than those of the bulk thermal distributions in these systems. This evidence… Read More
