Energy loss in intergalactic pair beams: Particle-in-cell simulation
Energy loss in intergalactic pair beams: Particle-in-cell simulation
The change of the distribution function of electron-positron pair beams determines whether GeV photons can be produced as secondary radiation from TeV photons. We will discuss the instabilities driven by pair beams. The system of a thermal proton-electron plasma and the electron-positron beam is collision free. We have, therefore, used …
