Nonlinear Shock Acceleration and Photon Emission in Supernova Remnants
Nonlinear Shock Acceleration and Photon Emission in Supernova Remnants
We have extended a simple model of nonlinear diffusive shock acceleration to include the injection and acceleration of electrons and the production of photons from bremsstrahlung, synchrotron, inverse-Compton, and pion-decay processes. We argue that the results of this model, which is simpler to use than more elaborate ones, offer a …
