Journal ArticleDOI
Physics of Gamma-Ray Bursts Prompt Emission
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the most recent observational results and the current theoretical interpretation of gamma-ray bursts and highlight some areas of active theoretical research, and point towards gaps that still exist in our knowledge and promising directions for the future.

Diffusive Shock Acceleration Theory Revisited
Igor V. Sokolov,Ilia I. Roussev,Lennard A. Fisk,Martin A. Lee,Tamas I. Gombosi,Jun-Ichi Sakai +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the acceleration of charged particles by shock waves predicts a power-law spectrum of accelerated particles, with the spectral index depending only on the compression ratio across the shock wave front.

The gamma-ray / infrared luminosity correlation of star-forming galaxies.
P. Kornecki,Leonardo J. Pellizza,S. del Palacio,A. L. Müller,J. F. Albacete-Colombo,Gustavo E. Romero +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the gamma-ray luminosity-star formation rate relation obtained from infra-red luminosities is found to be biased to shallower slopes, and the best-fitting relation between the latter two is determined using simple, population-oriented models for cosmic-ray transport and cooling.

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of Parker Solar Probe (PSP) IS⊙IS observations of ~30-300 keV n»¹ ions on 2018 November 11 when PSP was about 0.25 au from the Sun was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Persistence of precursor waves in two-dimensional relativistic shocks
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the efficiency of coherent upstream large-amplitude electromagnetic wave emission via synchrotron maser instability at relativistic magnetized shocks by using two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations.
