Particle acceleration and magnetic field amplification in hotspots of FR II galaxies: The case study 4C74.26
It has been suggested that relativistic shocks in extragalactic sources may accelerate the most energetic cosmic rays. However, recent theoretical advances indicating that relativistic shocks are probably unable to accelerate particles to energies much larger than a PeV cast doubt on this. In the pr...
