Newly born pulsars as sources of ultrahigh energy cosmic rays

K Fang, K Kotera, AV Olinto - The Astrophysical Journal, 2012‏ - iopscience.iop.org
Newly born pulsars offer favorable sites for the injection of heavy nuclei, and for their further
acceleration to ultrahigh energies. Once accelerated in the pulsar wind, nuclei have to …

Ultrahigh-energy cosmic-ray nuclei from black hole jets: Recycling galactic cosmic rays through shear acceleration

SS Kimura, K Murase, BT Zhang - Physical Review D, 2018‏ - APS
We perform Monte Carlo simulations of transrelativistic shear acceleration dedicated to a jet-
cocoon system of active galactic nuclei. A certain fraction of galactic cosmic rays in a halo is …

On ultra-high energy cosmic ray acceleration at the termination shock of young pulsar winds

M Lemoine, K Kotera, J Pétri - Journal of Cosmology and …, 2015‏ - iopscience.iop.org
Pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) are outstanding accelerators in Nature, in the sense that they
accelerate electrons up to the radiation reaction limit. Motivated by this observation, this …

Case for Centaurus A as the main source of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays

S Mollerach, E Roulet - Physical Review D, 2024‏ - APS
We discuss the possibility that a dominant fraction of the cosmic rays above the ankle (ie,
above 5 EeV) is due to a single nearby source, considering in particular the radio galaxy …
