Impact of disk magnetic fields on the propagation of stellar-scale jets in the magnetically arrested accretion disks of active galactic nuclei
Bao-Quan Huang, Tong Liu, Jian-Fu Zhang
It is widely recognized that active galactic nucleus (AGN) disks host numerous massive stars and compact objects. Stellar-scale jets triggered by collapses of massive stars and mer…
The -Dependence of Particle Spectra in Relativistic Turbulent Reconnection
Shi-Min Liang, Jian-Fu Zhang, Nian-Yu Yi
We perform numerical simulations of particle acceleration in relativistic, self-driven turbulent magnetic reconnection using the MHD-PIC method. We systematically investigate the d…
Revealing the Spectral Properties of Galactic Interstellar Medium by Survey Observations
Ya-Wen Xiao, Jian-Fu Zhang, Alex Lazarian
Based on multi-frequency radio polarization survey datasets, we investigate the spectral characteristics of the Galactic interstellar medium (ISM) using the polarization frequency…
Cascade Processes of Strong and Weak MHD Turbulence
Na-Na Gao, Jian-Fu Zhang, Jungyeon Cho
On the framework of relativistic force-free magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, we explore the fundamental properties of strong and weak turbulent cascades using high-resolution…
Studying the properties of reconnection-driven turbulence
Shi-Min Liang, Jian-Fu Zhang, Na-Na Gao +1
Magnetic reconnection, often accompanied by turbulence interaction, is a ubiquitous phenomenon in astrophysical environments. However, the current understanding of the nature of tu…
Anisotropic diffusion of high-energy cosmic rays in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
Na-Na Gao, Jian-Fu Zhang
The origin of cosmic rays (CRs) and how they propagate remain unclear. Studying the propagation of CRs in magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence can help to comprehend many open issu…
