Abstract

Supernova blast wave shock is a very important site of cosmic-ray acceleration.

However, the detailed physical process of acceleration, in particular, non-linear interplay between cosmic-ray streaming and magnetic field amplification has not been studied under a realistic environment.

In this paper, using a unique and novel numerical method, we study cosmic-ray acceleration at supernova blast wave shock propagating in the interstellar medium with well-resolved magnetic field amplification by non-resonant hybrid instability (or Bell instability).

We find that the magnetic field is mildly amplified under typical ISM conditions that leads to maximum cosmic-ray energy ~30 TeV for supernova remnants with age ~1000 years consistent with gamma-ray observations.

The strength of the amplified magnetic field does not reach so-called saturation level, because cosmic-ray electric current towards the shock upstream has finite spatial extent, by which Bell instability cannot experience many e-folding times.
