Composition-dependent acceleration of UHE Cosmic Rays in AGN electric fields
E. Koutsoumpou, I. Contopoulos, A. Nathanail +2
The origin of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) remains elusive, as proposed acceleration mechanisms are rarely connected directly to composition-sensitive air-shower observab…
The azimuthal structure of magnetically arrested disks during flux eruption events
Argyrios Loules, Antonios Nathanail, Ioannis Contopoulos
We analyze data from a standard 3D general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics (GRMHD) simulation, focusing on equatorial slices in order to examine the details and the evolution of…
Exploring the impact of electromagnetic dissipation on ultra-relativistic plasma outflows
Argyrios Loules, Nektarios Vlahakis
Ultra-relativistic plasma outflows are intrinsically connected with gamma-ray bursts. Over the years, a large number of analytical and numerical works has been devoted to understan…
Magnetically arrested disk flux eruption events to describe SgrA* flares
Eleni Antonopoulou, Argyrios Loules, Antonios Nathanail
Context. Magnetically arrested disks are among the most suitable candidates for describing the gas accretion and observed emission in the vicinity of supermassive black holes. Aims…
Modeling of resistive relativistic astrophysical jets. Semianalytic results following a paraxial formalism
Argyrios Loules, Nektarios Vlahakis
Relativistic jets of magnetized plasma are a common high-energy astrophysical phenomenon, observed across a wide range of spatial and energy scales. In the past, semianalytic merid…
Relativistic shocks in conductive media
Argyrios Loules, Nektarios Vlahakis
Relativistic shocks are present in all high-energy astrophysical processes involving relativistic plasma outflows interacting with their ambient medium. While a well understood pro…
