Research Abstract |
Cosmic-rays affect the evolution of galaxies and clusters of galaxies. I studied the acceleration and diffusion of cosmic-rays in galaxies and clusters as well as their influence on the surrounding environment in a unified framework. The main results of this study are given as follows. (1) In galaxies, most cosmic-rays are accelerated at supernova remnants. During their diffusion into interstellar space, they excite plasma waves, which interact cosmic-rays and delay their diffusion. (2) In clusters, cosmic-rays are accelerated at the central AGNs. They propagate in intracluster gas along with plasma waves and widely heat the gas.
