About possibile generation of cosmic rays and gamma-bursts in plasma pinches
Trubnikov В.A., Vlasov V.P., Zhdanov S.K.
The hypothesis is considered that the cosmic gamma-bursts are generated by bremsstrahlung of the electrons accelerated in discharges of "lightning" type arising in "peripheral plasma shells" of stars. Such shells could be formed between stars as a result of the long-duration accumulation of the plasma "wind" (similar to "solar wind") in those places, where it meets with the wind from neighbouring stars. The possibility of it, that in the same dischargee the ions are generated and accelerated as cosmic rays, is also considered.
