Two-Phase Structure of Synchrotron-Cooling-Unstable Relativistic Plasma
Agnieszka Wierzchucka, Pablo J. Bilbao, Robert J. Ewart +2
Using analytic theory, radiative particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations, and fluid simulations, we show that relativistic, synchrotron-cooling, collisionless, high- pair plasmas fil…
Suppression of pair beam instabilities in a laboratory analogue of blazar pair cascades
Charles D. Arrowsmith, Francesco Miniati, Pablo J. Bilbao +28
The generation of dense electron-positron pair beams in the laboratory can enable direct tests of theoretical models of -ray bursts and active galactic nuclei. We have successfu…
Cosmic-ray transport in inhomogeneous media
Robert J. Ewart, Patrick Reichherzer, Shuzhe Ren +6
A theory of cosmic-ray transport in multi-phase diffusive media is developed, with the specific application to cases in which the cosmic-ray diffusion coefficient has large spatial…
Cosmic-ray confinement in radio bubbles by micromirrors
Robert J. Ewart, Patrick Reichherzer, Archie F. A. Bott +2
Radio bubbles, ubiquitous features of the intracluster medium around active galactic nuclei, are known to rise buoyantly for multiple scale heights through the intracluster medium…
Elasticity of tangled magnetic fields
D. N. Hosking, A. A. Schekochihin, S. A. Balbus
The fundamental difference between incompressible ideal magnetohydrodynamics and the dynamics of a non-conducting fluid is that magnetic fields exert a tension force that opposes t…
