The radiative signature of Fermi acceleration at relativistic shocks
The first-order Fermi process at relativistic shocks requires the generation of strong turbulence in the vicinity of the shock front. Recent particle in cell simulations have demonstrated that this mechanism can be studied self-consistently at weakly magnetised shocks. In this case, strong electroma...
