Synchrotron-cooled plasma distribution in the outer magnetosphere of a neutron star
Mikhail V. Medvedev, Anatoly Spitkovsky, Alexander Philippov
The guiding center formalism is employed to analyze the motion of a charged relativistic particle in an inhomogeneous magnetic field, subject to magnetic mirroring and energy loss…
Whistler-Alfvén turbulence in a non-neutral ultrarelativistic pair plasma
Stanislav Boldyrev, Mikhail Medvedev
The large-scale dynamics of most conventional space and astrophysical plasmas are predominantly governed by Alfvén modes, which are low-frequency magnetohydrodynamic modes existing…
Electron-positron cascade in magnetospheres of supermassive Kerr black holes and the origin of relativistic AGN jets
Mikhail V. Medvedev, Andrzej A. Zdziarski
The avalanche mechanism of plasma production in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is detailed, and constraints on system parameters required for efficient electron-positron pair cascad…
