A time-dependent model of stellar evolution and wind shocks shows collective winds of massive star clusters dominate the PeV knee and explain the common spectral break in protons and helium.
Derives series solution for two-zone cosmic-ray diffusion and finds local-source probability at 10 TeV rises from 0.4% to 1.7-2.2% but remains model-dependent.
3D PIC simulations of relativistic turbulence show mirror interactions drive perpendicular momentum gains correlated with local magnetic-field strengthening, yielding anisotropic high-energy particle distributions and enhanced confinement.
RGS spectra of V4641 Sgr reveal narrow N and O lines from a dense, multi-phase, photoionized disk atmosphere with log ξ ≈ 3.1 and 0.36 and velocities 540-720 km/s.
Feasibility calculations show SKA-Mid can detect polarized emission from a Holmberg II X-1-like ULX jet within 10 hours up to ~10 Mpc, while the bubble requires ~100 hours.
Simulations indicate LACT can reach 5 sigma detection of SS 433 in ~30 hours, spatially separate its jets, and distinguish hadronic components after ~100 hours based on prior LHAASO data.
Overview of synergies between SKA radio observations and gamma-ray facilities for studying transient, variable, and steady GeV-TeV sources.
A review of extreme gamma-ray transients defined as catastrophic events or extreme particle acceleration regimes, covering diagnostics, instruments, and source classes.
