Supernovae remnant shock waves could be at the origin of cosmic rays up to energies in excess of the knee ($E\simeq3\times 10^{15}\,$eV) if the magnetic field is efficiently amplified by the streaming of accelerated particles in the shock precursor. This paper follows up on a previous paper (Pelletier et al. 2006, A&A, in press) which derived the properties of the MHD turbulence so generated, in particular its anisotropic character, its amplitude and its spectrum. In the present paper, we…

This study calculates the growth time-scales of CR-driven instabilities and finds that extended IIb SNe shocks can trigger fast intra-day instabilities, strong magnetic field amplification, and CR acceleration, and the trans-relativistic object SN 2009bb can accelerate CRs up to 2-3 PeV within 20 d after the outburst.
