Constraining Active Galactic Nucleus Jets with Spectrum and Core Shift: The Case of M87
Kouichi Hirotani, Hsien Shang, Ruben Krasnopolsky +3
We analytically model stationary and axisymmetric active galactic nucleus jets, assuming energy conservation along each magnetic flux tube. Using very-long-baseline interferometry…
R-JET: A postprocessing code for radiative transport in relativistic jets
Kouichi Hirotani, Hsien Shang, Ruben Krasnopolsky +1
We describe a post-processing radiative transport code for computing the spectra, the coreshift, and the surface-brightness distribution of special relativistic jets with arbitrary…
Two-dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulations of axisymmetric black hole magnetospheres
Kouichi Hirotani, Ruben Krasnopolsky, Hsien Shang +2
We investigate the temporal evolution of an axisymmetric magnetosphere around a rapidly rotating, stellar-mass black hole, applying a two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation sc…
