The shock waves from such stellar explosions, or the magnetic fields of the superdense neutron stars left behind, were thought to be able to boost particles from the explosion and surrounding region to very high energies.

During a 1909 lecture in Salzburg, Austria, he said, «I more or less imagine each such singular point [of light] as being surrounded by a field of force which has essentially the character of a plane wave.»

We know that for energies of modest to intermediate energy, the culprit or the source of the acceleration appears to be the shock front that surrounds a [an] expanding supernova blast wave; that is to say, we have a star that undergoes a massive cosmic explosion [and] drives a strong shock wave out into the surrounding interstellar medium, and the gas around the shock wave, and all the magnetic fields associated with it are capable of accelerating particles to very high energies; and also incidentally magnifying and amplifying the magnetic field associated with that shock front and giving a lot of x-ray emission and radio emission and so on, and so we've understood that.

The pairing also highlights the different ways of representing the sublimity of the surrounding world, whether through a large representational closeup of an immense wave, or by way of the small - scale, quiet abstraction of a deep blue rectangle framed by fields of white.
