The Effects of Magnetic Fields on Radiative Cooling Jets
Elisabete M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, Adriano H. Cerqueira
We here review the results of recent studies of magnetic field effects on the structure and evolution of overdense, radiative cooling, steady and pulsed jets which were carried out…
Ultra-High-Energy Cosmic Ray Acceleration by Magnetic Reconnection in Newborn Pulsars
E. M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, A. Lazarian
We here investigate the possibility that the ultra-high energy cosmic ray (UHECR) events observed above the GZK limit are mostly protons accelerated in econnection sites just above…
Origin and Propagation of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays
Gustavo A. Medina Tanco, Elisabete M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, Jorge E. Horvatth
The existence of cosmic ray particles up to the ultra-high energy limit (> 10^20 eV) is now beyond any doubt. The detection of cosmic particles with such energies imposes a challen…
Magnetic Field Effects on the Structure of Radiatively Cooling Protostellar Jets
Elisabete M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, Adriano H. Cerqueira
In the present work, with the help of fully 3-D smooth particle magnetohydodynamic (SPMHD) simulations, we explore the nonlinear effects of magnetic fields (in close equipartition…
3-D SPH Simulations of HD and MHD Jets
E. M. Gouveia Dal Pino, A. H. Cerqueira
We present fully three-dimensional hydrodynamical and magnetohydrodynamical simulations of supersonic, radiative cooling jets propagating into homogeneous and stratified environmen…
