Princeton University Astroplasmas Seminar
Nonthermal Electron Acceleration via Stochastic Shock Drift Acceleration: Theory, Simulation, and Observation
Electron injection into diffusive shock acceleration has been a topic of great interest over the decades. One of the prime candidate mechanisms, stochastic shock drift acceleration (SSDA), has recently been discussed based on fully kinetic simulations and spacecraft observations. In this talk, I will discuss the present status and future perspectives of SSDA as a solution to the electron injection problem.
