The cosmic Zevatron based on cyclotron auto-resonance: many-particle simulations [HEAP]

http://arxiv.org/abs/2106.05787


Cyclotron auto-resonance acceleration has been recently advanced as a potential mechanism for accelerating nuclei to ZeV energies (1 ZeV = $10^{21}$ eV). All results have been based on single-particle calculations employing analytic solutions to the relativistic equations of motion in the combined magnetic and radiation fields. Here, many-particle simulation results are presented which lend support to the single-particle calculations. Each single-particle result is found to lie well within one standard deviation of the ensemble average of the corresponding many-particle simulation.
