摘要:

通过数值求解从激波前缘附近到远离激波前缘区域的扩散-对流方程,研究了在超新星遗迹(SNR)处加速的宇宙射线(CR)质子的逃逸。考虑了逃逸CR粒子产生的Alfven波的放大及其对CR逃逸到星际介质的影响。我们发现,波的放大显着延迟逃逸的粒子,甚至远离冲击波阵面(在SNR的规模)。这意味着通过在SNR周围的分子云处的伽马射线观测测量的CR粒子的能谱受到波的粒子散射的严重影响。

英文摘要:

We study the escape of cosmic-ray (CR) protons accelerated at a supernova remnant (SNR) by numerically solving a diffusion-convection equation from the vicinity of the shock front to the region far away from the front. We consider the amplifications of Alfven waves generated by the escaping CR particles and their effects on CR escape into interstellar medium (ISM). We find that the amplification of the waves significantly delays the escape of the particles even far away from the shock front (on a scale of the SNR). This means that the energy spectrum of CR particles measured through gamma-ray observations at molecular clouds around SNRs is seriously affected by the particle scattering by the waves.
