Abstract:

AbstractThe effect of diffusive shock acceleration on a distribution of particles is explored for multiple shocks, taking into account adiabatic expansion between the shocks. Specifically, the spectral index is calculated numerically for two cases: a sequence of identical shocks, and a sequence of pairs of shocks with alternating shock strength. How these two cases evolve to the asymptotic limit is examined, and it is shown that the evolution of the paired-shock case can be described by a sequence of identical shocks with shock strength equal to the mean of the two.

Abstract:

A new theory of the propagation of weak shocks into non-uniform, two-dimensional flows is introduced. The theory is based on a description of shock propagation in terms of a manifold equation together with compatibility conditions for shock strength and its normal derivatives behind the shock. This approach was developed by Ravindran & Prasad (1993) for shocks of arbitrary strength propagating into a medium at rest and is extended here to non-uniform media and restricted to moderately weak shocks. The theory is tested against known analytical solutions for cylindrical and plane shocks, and

The survival rate of domestic male and female adult Panstrongylus megistus was studied after sequential heat and cold shocks in order to investigate shock tolerance compared to that previously reported for nymphs. Sequential shocks were such that a milder shock (0°C, 5°C, 35°C, or 40°C for 1 h) preceded a severe one (0°C or 40°C for 12 h), separated by intervals of 8, 18, 24, and 72 h at 28°C (control temperature). The preliminary thermal shock induced tolerance to the more severe one, although tolerance intensity depended on the initial shock temperature and the interval between treatments. D

Abstract. A one-dimensional (1-D), time-dependent, adaptive-grid MHD model with solar wind structure has been used in the past to study the interaction of shocks. In the present study, we wish to study some fundamental processes that may be associated with slow shock genesis and their possible interactions with other discontinuities. This adaptive-grid model, suitable for appropriate spatial and temporal numerical simulations, is used for this purpose because its finer grid sizes in the vicinity of the steep gradients at shocks make it possible to delineate the physical parameters on both side

Abstract This study provides a detailed analysis of 14 distant interplanetary shocks observed by the Solar Wind Around Pluto instrument on board New Horizons. These shocks were observed with a pickup ion data cadence of approximately 30 minutes, covering a heliocentric distance range of ∼52–60 au. All the shocks observed within this distance range are fast forward shocks, and the shock compression ratios vary between ∼1.2 and 1.9. The shock transition scales are generally narrow, and the SW density compressions are more pronounced compared to the previous study of seven shocks by D. J. McComas

This paper considers a more general shock model with insurance and financial risk background, in which the system is subject to two types of shocks called primary shocks and secondary shocks. Each primary shock causes a series of secondary shocks according to some cluster pattern.

We focus on the local cumulative shock process where only a certain number of the most recent primary and seconda

The local shock speed and the transit speed calculated for the results of the magnetohydrodynamic simulation show good agreement with the observations. The relation expressed by the index is well explained by a simplified propagation model assuming a blast wave. For several shocks the ratio is approximately 1.2, implying that these shocks accelerated during p

Shock waves light up the jets, winds and outflows around YSOs and diagnose the physical conditions and processes resident in these regions. This paper discusses the differences between the jet/wind shock and the ambient shock, between C shocks and J shocks, and between the shocks produced by pure jets and by collimated wide angle winds. Basic shock physics is briefly reviewed, with a special focus on the temperature structure in shocks and the Wardle instability of C shocks. Application is made to the origin of shocked H2 emission and to H2O masers.

Shocks of > or = 5 V/cm produced a dose- and latency-dependent prolongation of the AP ongoing during the shock.

ABSTRACT Moderately strong shocks arise naturally when two subclusters merge. For instance, when a smaller subcluster falls into the gravitational potential of a more massive cluster, a bow shock is formed and moves together with the subcluster. After pericentre passage, however, the subcluster is decelerated by the gravity of the main cluster, while the shock continues moving away from the cluster centre. These shocks are considered as promising candidates for powering radio relics found in many clusters. The aim of this paper is to explore the fate of such shocks when they travel to the clus

For given values of the mass ratio and the specific heat of the constituents, we identify the possible sub-shocks as the Mach number M0 of the shock wave and the equilibrium concentration c0 of the constituents change.

Abstract:

Using a structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) model, this paper provides deeper insight into unemployment dynamics in Germany. We identify a technology shock and two policy shocks that play a central role in business cycle research. Accordingly, we enrich the discussion on the sources of unemployment dynamics by considering demand-side impulses. The worker reallocation process varies substantially with the identified shocks. The job-finding rate plays a larger role after a technology shock and a monetary policy shock, whereas the separation rate appears to be the dominant margin after a fisc

Abstract:

We discus the existence of delta shock waves obtained as a limit of two shock waves. For that purpose we perturb a prototype of weakly hyperbolic 2 × 2 system (sometimes called the "generalized pressureless gas dynamics model") by an additional term (called the "generalized vanishing pressure"). The obtained perturbed system is strictly hyperbolic and its Riemann problem is solvable. Since it is genuinely nonlinear, its solution consists of shocks and rarefaction waves combination. As perturbation parameter vanishes, the solution converges in the space of distribution. Specially, a solution co

Abstract:

Abstract Despite being studied for many years, the structure of collisionless shocks is still not fully determined. Such shocks are known to be accelerators of cosmic rays (CRs), which, in turn, modify the shock structure. The shock width λ is known to be connected to the CR spectral index a. Here, we use an instability analysis to derive the shock width in the presence of CRs. We obtain an analytical expression connecting the shock width to the CR index and to the fraction of upstream particles that are accelerated. We find that when this fraction becomes larger than ∼30%, a new instability b

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Several types/classes of shocks naturally arise during formation and evolution of galaxy clusters. One such class is represented by accretion shocks, associated with deceleration of infalling baryons. Such shocks, characterized by a very high Mach number, are present even in 1D models of cluster evolution. Another class is composed of ‘runaway merger shocks’, which appear when a merger shock, driven by a sufficiently massive infalling subcluster, propagates away from the main-cluster centre. We argue that, when the merger shock overtakes the accretion shock, a new long-living shock is

In extreme shock models, only the impact of the current, possibly fatal shock is usually taken into account, whereas in cumulative shock models, the impact of the preceding shocks is accumulated as well. In this paper we combine an extreme shock model with a specific cumulative shock model. It is shown that the proposed setting can also be interpreted as a generalization of the well-known Brown–Proschan model that describes repair actions for repairable systems. For a system subject to a specific process of shocks, we derive the survival probability and the corresponding failure rate function.

Abstract:

Abstract. It is widely believed that electron dynamics in the shock front is essentially collisionless and determined by the quasistationary magnetic and electric fields in the shock. In thick shocks the electron motion is adiabatic: the magnetic moment is conserved throughout the shock and v2^ ∝ B. In very thin shocks with large cross-shock potential (the last feature is typical for shocks with strong electron heating), electrons may become demagnetized (the magnetic moment is no longer conserved) and their motion may become nonadiabatic. We consider the case of substantial demagnetization in

Abstract We have systematically studied both standing dissipative and non-dissipative shocks and isentropic compression waves in thin, rotating, adiabatic astrophysical flows, such as the accretion or winds near black holes and neutron stars. The flow is assumed to be in transverse equilibrium and the dissipation is allowed only at the shocks. We classify the whole parameter space spanned by the accretion rate (M˙), the energy (E), and the angular momentum (λ) according to whether a shock solution can exist or not. Apart from conserving the baryon flux and the net momentum flux, flows at these

It is found that oil price shocks depress firms' investment decisions, and do so differentially by depressing investment more for more uncertain firms.

AbstractDiffusive shock acceleration produces a power law momentum distribution f(p)α p−b, with b ≥ 4 for a single shock, and b = 4 for a single strong shock. It has been shown that the distribution for acceleration at a sequence of identical shocks is flatter, approaching f(p)α p−3 below a high energy knee, for an arbitrarily large number of shocks. We show how this flatter distribution arises and discuss the range of momenta over which it extends after a finite number of shocks.

Abstract Nonradiative shocks accelerate particles and heat astrophysical plasmas. While supernova remnants are the most well-studied example, neutron star (NS) bow shocks are also nonradiative and Balmer dominated. NS bow shocks are likely ubiquitous in the interstellar medium due to their large speeds imparted at birth, and they are thought to be a discrete source population contributing to the Galactic cosmic-ray spectrum. To date, nine NS bow shocks have been directly observed in Hα images. Most of these shocks have been characterized using narrowband Hα imaging and slit spectroscopy, which

Abstract:

ABSTRACT When a subcluster merges with a larger galaxy cluster, a bow shock is driven ahead of the subcluster. At a later merger stage, this bow shock separates from the subcluster, becoming a ‘runaway’ shock that propagates down the steep density gradient through the cluster outskirts and approximately maintains its strength and the Mach number. Such shocks are plausible candidates for producing radio relics in the periphery of clusters. We argue that, during the same merger stage, a secondary shock is formed much closer to the main cluster centre. A close analogue of this structure is known

Abstract:

ABSTRACT When the pressure of particles accelerated at shock waves is no longer negligible compared to the kinetic pressure of the gas, the linear theory of diffusive shock acceleration breaks down. This is expected in particular when the shock sweeps up pre-existing cosmic rays, or when multiple shocks reaccelerate successively the same particles. To describe these systems, one has to account for the non-linear backreaction of the particles on the magnetohydrodynamic flow. Using an up-to-date semi-analytical model of particle reacceleration at non-linear shocks, we show that the presence of p
