Stability of Relativistic Jets from Rotating, Accreting Black Holes via Fully Three-Dimensional Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations

Jonathan C. McKinney, Roger D. Blandford

Rotating magnetized compact objects and their accretion discs can generate strong toroidal magnetic fields driving highly magnetized plasmas into relativistic jets. Of significant…

Connecting Reionization to the Local Universe

Marcelo A. Alvarez, Michael T. Busha, Tom Abel +1

We present results of combined N-body and three-dimensional reionization calculations to determine the relationship between reionization history and local environment in a volume 1…

Fermi LAT Observations of the Vela Pulsar

A. A. Abdo

The Vela pulsar is the brightest persistent source in the GeV sky and thus is the traditional first target for new gamma-ray observatories. We report here on initial Fermi Large Ar…

Backgrounds and Projected Limits from Dark Matter Direct Detection Experiments

Scott Dodelson

A simple formula is introduced which indicates the amount by which projections of dark matter direct detection experiments are expected to be degraded due to backgrounds.

Constraints on the Low-Energy Cutoff in the Electron Distribution of the PKS 0637-752 Jet

M. Mueller, D. A. Schwartz

We re-analyze the Chandra ACIS spectrum of the kpc-scale jet in PKS 0637-752 to investigate the possible low energy cutoff in the relativistic electron spectrum producing the non-t…
