A current driven instability in parallel, relativistic shocks
Recently, Bell [2] has reanalysed the problem of wave excitation by cosmic rays propagating in the pre-cursor region of a supernova remnant shock front. He pointed out a strong, nonresonant, current-driven instability previously overlooked in kinetic treatments [1, 5] and suggested that it can subst...
