Cosmic rays and the magnetic field in the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 253. II The magnetic field
Heesen, V.; Krause, M.; Beck, R.; Dettmar, R-J. (2009)Context. There are several edge-on galaxies with a known magnetic field structure in their halo. A vertical magnetic field significantly enhances the cosmic-ray transport from the disk into the halo. This could explain the ... -
Transport of cosmic rays in the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 253
Heesen, V.; Beck, R.; Krause, M.; Dettmar, R-J. (2009)Radio halos require the coexistence of extra-planar cosmic rays and magnetic fields. Because cosmic rays are injected and accelerated by processes related to star formation in the disk, they have to be transported from the ...
