Phenomena Involving Magnetic Vortex Tubes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 July 2016
Abstract
Magnetic vortex tubes (MVTs) on a hierarchy of scales occur universally. On the largest scale they channel bipolar outflows of gas. A pinched region of MVT provides an acceleration mechanism capable of yielding the maximum cosmic ray energies.
