A relativistic inflow candidate in a quasar at cosmic noon
Yerong Xu, Xiurui Zhao, Elena Bertola +14
Cosmic noon () marks the peak epoch of cosmic star formation and black hole accretion activity, where strong accretion and outflows are expected. We report two candidate ab…
Energy Partition in Relativistic Electron-Positron-Ion Reconnection
Nilay Mancini, Luca Comisso, Lorenzo Sironi
Relativistic magnetic reconnection, a prime mechanism for particle acceleration, has been extensively studied in electron--ion and pair plasmas, but how the dissipated energy is sh…
Synchrotron-Regulated Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence: Emission, Polarization, and Faraday Rotation
Xiaochen Sun, Luca Comisso, Lorenzo Sironi +2
Relativistic magnetized plasmas in many high-energy astrophysical systems are both turbulent and strongly radiative, yet their nonlinear dynamics and radiative outcomes remain poor…
Emergence and Detection of Electron-Scale Current Sheets in Turbulence with MMS Observations and fully kinetic 3D simulations
Zachary Davis, Alexandros Chasepis, Colby Haggerty +2
The solar wind is characterized by turbulence, where a cascade produces intermittent current structures called current sheets (CS) that efficiently dissipate energy into the plasma…
Neutrinos and gamma rays from Seyfert galaxies constrain the properties of coronal turbulence
Federico Testagrossa, Damiano F. G. Fiorillo, Luca Comisso +3
The TeV neutrino signal observed by IceCube from the active galactic nucleus (AGN) NGC 1068 can probe its innermost coronal regions. If these neutrinos originate from hadrons accel…
PACHA: Probing AGN Coronae with High-redshift AGN
Xiurui Zhao, Elias Kammoun, Marco Ajello +18
The X-ray emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is generally attributed to inverse Compton scattering of accretion-disk photons by hot electrons in a compact corona. In local AG…
