Relativistic reconnection with effective resistivity: I. Dynamics and reconnection rate
M. Bugli, E. F. Lopresti, E. Figueiredo +6
Relativistic magnetic reconnection is one of the most fundamental mechanisms considered responsible for the acceleration of relativistic particles in astrophysical jets and magneto…
A Fourth-Order Finite Volume Scheme for Resistive Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamics
Andrea Mignone, Vittoria Berta, Marco Rossazza +4
We present a finite-volume, genuinely 4th-order accurate numerical method for solving the equations of resistive relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (Res-RMHD) in Cartesian coordinat…
Magnetic dissipation in short gamma-ray burst jets. I. Resistive relativistic MHD evolution in a model environment
Giancarlo Mattia, Luca Del Zanna, Andrea Pavan +1
Short gamma-ray bursts originate when relativistic jets emerge from the remnants of binary neutron star mergers. Both the jet and the remnant are believed to be strongly magnetized…
