Hit or Miss, Arrival Time, and $B_z$ Orientation Predictions of BATS-R-US CME Simulations at 1 AU. (arXiv:1905.08961v1 [physics.space-ph]) <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/physics/1/au:+Schmidt_J/0/1/0/all/0/1">J. M. Schmidt</a>, <a href="http://arxiv.org/find/physics/1/au:+Cairns_I/0/1/0/all/0/1">Iver H. Cairns</a> Using a refined setup process, we simulated the propagation of six observed Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) with the 2012 Block-Adaptive-Tree-Solarwind-Roe-Upwind-Scheme (BATS-R-US) code from the Sun to the Earth or STEREO A and compared the outputs with observations. A linear relation between the average CME speed below 6 solar radii and the flux rope current is demonstrated and used to tune the simulations. The simulations correctly predict if and when an observable CME shock reaches one astronomical unit (AU). TheRead More →

We found all of the six clouds show distinct dust temperature gradients, ranging from 20 KRead More →

Morphological diversity of spiral galaxies originating in the cold gas inflow from cosmic webs.

Relative dominance of these components is known to correlate with the total mass of the galaxy, and produces a remarkable morphological variety of spiral galaxies. Although there are many formation scenarios regarding individual components, no unified theory exists which explains this systematic variation. The cold-flow hypothesis predicts that galaxies grow by accretion of cold gas from cosmic webs (cold accretion) when their mass is below a certain threshold, whereas in the high-massRead More →

Galaxies as ‘cosmic cauldrons’ Star formation within interstellar clouds of gas and dust, so-called molecular clouds, proceeds very rapidly yet highly inefficiently. Most of the gas is dispersed by stellar radiation, revealing galaxies to be highly dynamic systems, like “cosmic cauldrons,” consisting of components that constantly change their appearance. Based on new observations of the NGC 300 spiral galaxy, a team of scientists led by astrophysicist Dr. Diederik Kruijssen from Heidelberg University has now managed for the first time to reconstruct the time-evolution of molecular clouds and the star formation process within them. Their analysis shows that these clouds are short-lived structures undergoing rapid lifecycles,Read More →

After a short recap of the experimental evidences, we will review theoretical models aiming at describing the sources of these extremely energetic particles opening a window on the highest energies universe. We will discuss the production of secondary particles and the possible tests of new physics that ultra high energy cosmic rays could provide. We will discuss the main relevant aspects of the physics of ultra high energy cosmic rays. After a short recapRead More →
