Magnetar Driven Bubbles and the Origin of Collimated Outflows from GRBs
N. Bucciantini, E. Quataert, J. Arons +2
We model the interaction between the wind from a newly formed rapidly rotating magnetar and the surrounding progenitor. In the first few seconds after core collapse the magnetar in…
Theory of Pulsar Wind Nebulae
N. Bucciantini
Our understanding of Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe), has greatly improved in the last years thanks to unprecedented high resolution images taken from the HUBBLE, CHANDRA and XMM satell…
Relativistic Jets and Long-Duration Gamma-ray Bursts from the Birth of Magnetars
N. Bucciantini, E. Quataert, J. Arons +2
We present time-dependent axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the interaction of a relativistic magnetized wind produced by a proto-magnetar with a surrounding stellar…
Magnetar Driven Bubbles and the Origin of Collimated Outflows in Gamma-ray Bursts
N. Bucciantini, E. Quataert, J. Arons +2
We model the interaction between the wind from a newly formed rapidly rotating magnetar and the surrounding supernova shock and host star. The dynamics is modeled using the two-dim…
ECHO: an Eulerian Conservative High Order scheme for general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics and magnetodynamics
L. Del Zanna, O. Zanotti, N. Bucciantini +1
We present a new numerical code, ECHO, based on an Eulerian Conservative High Order scheme for time dependent three-dimensional general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (GRMHD) an…
Modeling Pulsar Wind Nebulae
N. Bucciantini
In the last few years, new observations by CHANDRA and XMM have shown that Pulsar Wind Nebulae present a complex but similar inner feature, with the presence of axisymmetric rings…
