Microphysics of Particle Reflection in Weibel-Mediated Shocks
Jasmine Parsons, Anatoly Spitkovsky, Arno Vanthieghem
Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations have shown that relativistic collisionless shocks mediated by the Weibel instability accelerate about 1% of incoming particles, while the majorit…

Anomalous coupling in radiation mediated shocks}
A. Levinson, A. Granot, A. Vanthieghem +1
We summarize recent attempts to unravel the role of plasma kinetic effects in radiation mediated shocks. Such shocks form in all strong stellar explosions and are responsible for t…
