On The Nonthermal Power Laws In Magnetized Turbulent Plasmas
Rostom Mbarek, Daniel Grošelj, Alexander Philippov
Building on recent progress in the understanding of particle transport in magnetized plasmas, we derive a scaling law for the formation of nonthermal spectral tails in mildly and s…
3D Kinetic Simulations of Driven Reconnection in Merging Flux Tubes
Camille Granier, Fabio Bacchini, Daniel Groselj +1
We present 2D and 3D Particle-in-Cell simulations of driven collisionless magnetic reconnection triggered by the compression and merger of two Lundquist-type force-free flux tubes…
Interaction of Strong Electromagnetic Waves with Unmagnetized Pair Plasmas
Navin Sridhar, Emanuele Sobacchi, Lorenzo Sironi +3
We investigate analytically and numerically the interaction of strong electromagnetic waves with unmagnetized pair plasmas. We show that the interaction is governed by a single non…
Particle-in-Cell Methods for Simulations of Sheared, Expanding, or Escaping Astrophysical Plasma
Fabio Bacchini, Evgeny A. Gorbunov, Maximilien Péters de Bonhome +4
Particle-in-Cell (PIC) methods have achieved widespread recognition as simple and flexible approaches to model collisionless plasma physics in fully kinetic simulations of astrophy…
