3D PIC Simulations for Relativistic Jets with a Toroidal Magnetic Field
A. Meli, K. Nishikawa, C. Koehn +6
We have investigated how kinetic instabilities such as the Weibel instability (WI), the mushroom instability (MI), and the kinetic Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (kKHI) are excited i…

PIC methods in astrophysics: Simulations of relativistic jets and kinetic physics in astrophysical systems
Kenichi Nishikawa, Ioana Dutan, Christoph Koehn +1
The Particle-In-Cell (PIC) method has been developed by Oscar Buneman, Charles Birdsall, Roger W. Hockney, and John Dawson in the 1950s and, with the advances of computing power, h…
