Description

Decisive advances in the understanding of explosive transients have been made possible by the development of multi-messenger astronomy and time-domain astronomy. However, the origin of high-energy (HE) to ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic rays and neutrinos remain unclear. Deciding between the various source candidates requires a precise modeling of the propagation, acceleration and interactions of cosmic rays, and the subsequent multi-messenger and time-dependent emissions. We will describe the production of HE to UHE particles in the vicinity of transient sources, and highlight some key aspects related to the treatment of multi-messenger predictions, time-dependencies and uncertainties.
