Anisotropic particle acceleration in Alfvénic turbulence

Cristian Vega, Stanislav Boldyrev, Vadim Roytershteyn

Alfvénic turbulence is an effective mechanism for particle acceleration in strongly magnetized, relativistic plasma. In this study, we investigate a scenario where turbulent plasma…

Relaxed and Inertial Nonlinear Forward-Backward with Momentum

Fernando Roldán, Cristian Vega

In this article, we study inertial algorithms for numerically solving monotone inclusions involving the sum of a maximally monotone and a cocoercive operator. In particular, we ana…

Relativistic Alfvén turbulence at kinetic scales

Cristian Vega, Stanislav Boldyrev, Vadim Roytershteyn

In a strongly magnetized, magnetically dominated relativistic plasma, Alfvénic turbulence can extend to scales much smaller than the particle inertial scales. It leads to an energy…

Spatial intermittency of particle distribution in relativistic plasma turbulence

Cristian Vega, Stanislav Boldyrev, Vadim Roytershteyn

Relativistic magnetically dominated turbulence is an efficient engine for particle acceleration in a collisionless plasma. Ultrarelativistic particles accelerated by interactions w…

Turbulence and particle acceleration in a relativistic plasma

Cristian Vega, Stanislav Boldyrev, Vadim Roytershteyn +1

In a collisionless plasma, the energy distribution function of plasma particles can be strongly affected by turbulence. In particular, it can develop a non-thermal power-law tail a…
