Confirmation of strong magnetic field amplification and nuclear cosmic ray acceleration in SN 1006
Confirmation of strong magnetic field amplification and nuclear cosmic ray acceleration in SN 1006
It is shown that the nonlinear kinetic model of cosmic ray (CR) acceleration in supernova remnants (SNRs) fits the shell-type nonthermal X-ray morphology, obtained in Chandra observations, in a satisfactory way. The set of empirical parameters is the same which reproduces the dynamical properties of the SNR and the spectral …
