Dependence of Particle Acceleration Efficiency on Shock Velocity in Weakly Magnetized Electron-Ion Shocks
Taiki Jikei, Daniel Groselj, Lorenzo Sironi
Using unprecedentedly long 2D particle-in-cell simulations, we study electron and ion acceleration in weakly magnetized quasi-parallel shocks, propagating at velocities ranging fro…
The baryon content of magnetically arrested black hole disks and jets
Anthony Chow, Lorenzo Sironi, Bart Ripperda +1
We study the transport of baryons in magnetically arrested accretion flows and relativistic jets using general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations that incorporate a passi…
Magnetic Field Amplification and Particle Acceleration in Weakly Magnetized Trans-relativistic Electron-ion Shocks
Taiki Jikei, Daniel Groselj, Lorenzo Sironi
We investigate the physics of quasi-parallel trans-relativistic shocks propagating in weakly magnetized plasmas by means of long-duration two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulatio…
Magnetoluminescence
Roger Blandford, Yajie Yuan, Masahiro Hoshino +1
Pulsar Wind Nebulae, Blazars, Gamma Ray Bursts and Magnetars all contain regions where the electromagnetic energy density greatly exceeds the plasma energy density. These sources e…
