The NICER view of Scorpius X-1

J. López-Miralles, S. E. Motta, J. C. A. Miller-Jones +3

The Neutron Star X-ray binary Sco X-1 is one of the brightest Z-type sources in our Galaxy, showing frequent periods of flaring activity and different types of relativistic outflow…

Discovery of a dormant 33 solar-mass black hole in pre-release Gaia astrometry

Gaia Collaboration, P. Panuzzo, T. Mazeh +412

Gravitational waves from black-hole merging events have revealed a population of extra-galactic BHs residing in short-period binaries with masses that are higher than expected base…

Magnetic and thermal acceleration in extragalactic jets: An application to NGC 315

L. Ricci, M. Perucho, J. López-Miralles +2

Aims. Relativistic jets launched from active galactic nuclei accelerate up to highly relativistic velocities within a few parsecs to tens of parsecs. The precise way in which this…

Numerical simulations of relativistic jets

Manel Perucho, Jose López-Miralles

In this paper, we review recent and ongoing work by our group on numerical simulations of relativistic jets. Relativistic outflows in Astrophysics are related to dilute, high energ…

On the application of Jacobian-free Riemann solvers for relativistic radiation magnetohydrodynamics under M1 closure

Jose López-Miralles, Jose María Martí, Manel Perucho

Radiative transfer plays a major role in high-energy astrophysics. In multiple scenarios and in a broad range of energy scales, the coupling between matter and radiation is essenti…

3D RMHD simulations of jet-wind interactions in High Mass X-ray Binaries

J. López-Miralles, M. Perucho, J. M. Martí +2

The interaction of jets in High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) with the strong winds driven by the hot companion star in the vicinity of the compact object is fundamental to understan…

RadioAstron discovery of a mini-cocoon around the restarted parsec-scale jet in 3C 84

T. Savolainen, G. Giovannini, Y. Y. Kovalev +19

We present RadioAstron space-based very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of the nearby radio galaxy 3C84 (NGC1275) at the centre of the Perseus cluster. The observa…
