Cosmic ray acceleration at oblique shocks.

BELL A.R., SCHURE K.M. and REVILLE B.

Abstract (from CDS):

We show that the diffusion approximation breaks down for particle acceleration at oblique shocks with velocities typical of young supernova remnants. Higher order anisotropies flatten the spectral index at quasi-parallel shocks and steepen the spectral index at quasi-perpendicular shocks. We compare the theory with observed spectral indices.
