The Unanticipated Phenomenology of the Blazar PKS~2131021: A Unique Super-Massive Black Hole Binary Candidate
S. O'Neill, S. Kiehlmann, A. C. S. Readhead +24
Most large galaxies host supermassive black holes in their nuclei and are subject to mergers, which can produce a supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB), and hence periodic signatu…
Quantifying energetics and dissipation in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
Greg Salvesen, Kris Beckwith, Jacob B. Simon +2
We perform a suite of two- and three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations with the Athena code of the non-driven Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in the subsonic, weak mag…
Local Simulations of Instabilities in Relativistic Jets I: Morphology and Energetics of the Current-Driven Instability
Sean M. O'Neill, Kris Beckwith, Mitchell C. Begelman
We present the results of a numerical investigation of current-driven instability in magnetized jets. Utilizing the well-tested, relativistic magnetohydrodynamic code Athena, we co…
