Inferred B fields are much larger than can be expected from the simple compression of BISM Bobs >> 10 m G x 4 ~ 40 m G Shock simultaneously places a large fraction of shock energy into relativistic particles (e.g. IONS) and amplifies magnetic turbulence so B/B >> 1 4

10 Kepler's SNR Kepler's SNR is very similar to Tycho, but is far away not observed in γ-rays at the moment Gamma emission should be detectable by CTA Synchrotron emission Pion decay IC on CMB + Galactic light + IR from dust 10
11 SN 1006 SN 1006 in TeV (HESS) SN 1006 in X-rays (Chandra) Size 30 arcmin Bdown ~ μg HESS data (130 hrs of observation) Total gamma-ray flux <~ 1% Crab 11
12 SN 1006 leptonic Model fit parameters from Aharonian et al. (2014), arxiv: Leptonic model (1 zone): Explain the integrated gamma-ray fux hadronic Fails to explain the steep spectrum Requires low B, contrary to what inferred from observed thin X-ray rim (B~120 μg) Hadronic model (1 zone): Requires efciency ~ 30% 1) Steep spectrum E-2.3 with Ecut>>100 TeV mixed 2) hard spectrum E-2 with Ecut~80 TeV How to distinguish between the two scenarios? At high energies X-rays come from downstream while IC photons come from upstream 1' resolution will be able to detect a displacement between X-rays and γ-rays Extending the detection to E>10 TeV will reveal the presence of a cutof 12
13 HESS J The remnant RX J has been considered the most promising candidate to prove the existence of accelerated hadrons FermiLAT data seem to favor a probable leptonic origin BUT... Hadronic model(s): 0 Leptonic model(s): inverse Compton scattering 13
14 HESS J Curves from T. Tanaka et al., ApJ 685 (2008) Hadronic Both leptonic and hadronic models have problems in ftting Ge-TeV emission. Leptonic model (1 zone): Problems in ftting the highest energy points Need a IR background 30 > Gal. average Leptonic on (unknown) IR radiation 14

Leptonic model (1 zone): Problems in ftting the highest energy points Need a IR background 30 > Gal. average Hadronic model in clumpy medium: Reasonable ft with hard spectrum E-1.72 and with Ep,cut~250 TeV Clumpy CSM How to produce hard spectrum? Expansion in circumstellar medium with low average density but with high density clumps: High en. particles penetrate inside the clumps Low en. particles do not penetrate we get a hard spectrum shock 15
16 HESS J (Vela Jr.) Remnant size ~ 120' γ-ray emission well correlate with Radio and X-ray emission Main uncertainty due to distance 200pc < d < 1kpc Both hadronic and leptonic model can fit the data Lept. model favored for spectral shape but need B ~ 6 μg X-ray filaments require B~100 μg Issue in fitting the shell in γ-rays A better morphological study in γ-rays will help in distinguish between L. and H.

17 Looking for PeVatrons When we do expect production of PeV particles? To produce PeV particles we need magnetic field ~mg downstream of the shock. All possible mechanisms for magnetic amplification (upstream of the shock) require the presence of CRs. The most invoked ones are: 1) Resonant streaming instability 2) Non resonant amplification 17
18 How to get magnetc feld amplifcaton 1) Resonant streaming instability Particles of a certain momentum amplify Alfvén waves with a wavenumber equal to the inverse gyroradius of the particle. works for medium Mach number [e.g. Skilling (1975), Bell & Lucek (2001), Amato & Blasi (2006), Blasi (2014) arxiv: ] When the growth rate is fast : but this condition imply ( ) ncr 3 ξcr V sh = ni γmin Λ c 2 2 n va When CR ni V sh c the growth rate is slow: In both situations we get ( ) δb B0 2 few 18
19 How to get magnetc feld amplifcaton 2) Non resonant amplification [Bell's instability, Bell (2004)] The diffusive electric current of CRs amplifies almost purely growing waves with wave-numbers much greater than the inverse particle gyroradius. works for very high shock velocity (initial phase of SNR expansion) CR current escaping from the SNR j Amplified magnetic field lines 19
20 How to get magnetc feld amplifcaton 2) Non resonant amplification [Bell's instability, Bell (2004)] The diffusive electric current of CRs amplifies almost purely growing waves with wave-numbers much greater than the inverse particle gyroradius. works for very high shock velocity (initial phase of SNR expansion) Type I SNR (expanding into a uniform medium) At the beginning of the ST phase: 3 nism =1cm M ej =1M Sol 51 E SN =10 erg A factor 10 below the knee Type II SNR (expanding into a red supergiant wind) 5 M =10 M Sol / yr vw =10km / s M ej=1m Sol 51 E SN =410 erg 6 E M 2 10 GeV Right number, but this last only ~50 yr! 20

31 SUMMARY Few shell-type SNRs already detected in TeV gamma-rays are good candidates to be PeVatrons (or close to) The ASTRImini-array already has the capability to investigate these cases PeVatrons are statistically difcult to observe: assuming that SNRs are indeed the source of Galactic CRs up to the knee, the number of possible observable PeVatrons with current instrument can be very low (even compatible with 0 in the worst scenario) From the theoretical point of view the most favorable candidate for PeVatrons are remnant originated from type II SN exploding in red supergiant wind during the frst yrs. This support the difculty of detection. A possible way to enhance the probability to detect a PeVatron is the indirect observation in γ-ra ysfrom molecular cloud illuminated by escaping PeV particles. These sources could be observable for a much longer time (up to ~104 yr) if MCs are located in the vicinity of a sources at < 500 pc 31
