From 695cb0272a2d6ea22e2d8988fdf723c1b944072f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaron LI Date: Sun, 31 Dec 2017 16:36:56 +0800 Subject: clusters/halo: Rework the turbulence acceleration timescale calculation The new method adopted to determine the turbulence acceleration timescale follows [miniati2015] and [pinzke2017], in which the merger-induced turbulence cascades into small scales (and thus accelerate electrons) through the TTD (transit-time damping) mechanism by scattering mainly with the relativistic particles (cosmic-ray protons and electrons). --- fg21sim/extragalactic/clusters/halo.py | 86 +++++++++++++++------------------- 1 file changed, 39 insertions(+), 47 deletions(-) (limited to 'fg21sim/extragalactic/clusters') diff --git a/fg21sim/extragalactic/clusters/halo.py b/fg21sim/extragalactic/clusters/halo.py index 47f8078..6605763 100644 --- a/fg21sim/extragalactic/clusters/halo.py +++ b/fg21sim/extragalactic/clusters/halo.py @@ -42,8 +42,12 @@ References http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1999astro.ph..5116H ..
