The origin of galactic cosmic rays

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the ideas that have been and are being explored in order to account for the observable quantities related to cosmic rays and summarize the numerous new pieces of observation that are becoming available.

Global dynamical evolution of the ISM in star forming galaxies. I. High resolution 3D simulations: Effect of the magnetic field

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of magnetized matter circulation between the gaseous disk and the surrounding galactic halo is investigated using a 3D MHD code with adaptive mesh refinement developed for this purpose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-linear amplification of a magnetic field driven by cosmic ray streaming

TL;DR: One dimensional numerical results of the non-linear interaction between cosmic rays and a magnetic field are presented in this paper, where it is shown that cosmic ray streaming drives large amplitude Alfvenic waves.

Interstellar Turbulence II: Implications and Effects

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the observations and theory of these effects is presented, and the theory of turbulent transport of passive tracers is reviewed, as well as the turbulent concentration of dust grains and the turbulent washout of radial abundance gradients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diffuse Radio Emission from Galaxy Clusters

TL;DR: In a growing number of galaxy clusters diffuse extended radio sources have been found. as mentioned in this paper classified diffuse cluster radio sources into radio halos, cluster radio shocks (relics), and revived AGN fossil plasma sources.
