Cosmic-ray acceleration at relativistic shock waves with a realistic magnetic field structure

The process of cosmic-ray first-order Fermi acceleration at relativistic shock waves is studied with the method of Monte Carlo simulations. The simulations are based on numerical integration of particle equations of motion in a turbulent magnetic field near the shock. In comparison to earlier studie...
