On the Growth and Saturation of the Gyroresonant Streaming Instabilities
Cole Holcomb, Anatoly Spitkovsky
The self-regulation of cosmic ray (CR) transport in the interstellar and intracluster media has long been viewed through the lenses of linear and quasilinear kinetic plasma physics…
Kinetic simulations of mildly relativistic shocks I: particle acceleration in high Mach number shocks
Patrick Crumley, Damiano Caprioli, Sera Markoff +1
We use fully kinetic particle-in-cell simulations with unprecedentedly large transverse box sizes to study particle acceleration in weakly-magnetized mildly relativistic shocks tra…
Effects of synchrotron cooling and pair production on collisionless relativistic reconnection
Hayk Hakobyan, Alexander Philippov, Anatoly Spitkovsky
High energy radiation from nonthermal particles accelerated in relativistic magnetic reconnection is thought to be important in many astrophysical systems, ranging from blazar jets…
