3D turbulent reconnection: Theory, tests, and astrophysical implications
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the tearing reconnection is suppressed in 3D, and unlike the 2D settings, 3D reconnection induces turbulence that makes magnetic reconnection independent of resistivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Particle acceleration and relativistic shocks
J. G. Kirk,Peter Duffy +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral index of relativistic hydrodynamics was derived from the angular distribution of the upstream and downstream distributions at the shock front, which leads to predictions of spectral index.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review open questions and prospects for progress in ultra-high-energy cosmic ray (UHECR) research, based on a series of discussions that took place during the MIAPP workshop in 2018.

Diffuse Radio Emission from Galaxy Clusters
R. J. van Weeren,F. de Gasperin,Hiroki Akamatsu,Marcus Brüggen,L. Feretti,Hyesung Kang,Andra Stroe,Andra Stroe,Fabio Zandanel +8 more
TL;DR: In a growing number of galaxy clusters diffuse extended radio sources have been found. as discussed by the authors classified diffuse cluster radio sources into radio halos, cluster radio shocks (relics), and revived AGN fossil plasma sources.

The energy spectrum of 35‐ to 1600‐keV protons associated with interplanetary shocks
TL;DR: In this article, a statistical study on the proton energy spectra in the range of 35-1600 keV during the one-hour interval centered on the time of arrival of the shock front at the spacecraft of 75 interplanetary shocks that cover the period from August 1978 until December 1980, using the low-energy proton experiment on ISEE 3.
