A guiding center implementation for relativistic particle dynamics in the PLUTO code
A. Mignone, H. Haudemand, E. Puzzoni
We present a numerical implementation of the guiding center approximation to describe the relativistic motion of charged test particles in the PLUTO code for astrophysical plasma d…
Jet-environment interplay in magnetized binary neutron star mergers
Andrea Pavan, Riccardo Ciolfi, Jay Vijay Kalinani +1
GRB 170817A, the first short gamma-ray burst (sGRB) to be detected in coincidence with a gravitational wave signal, demonstrated that merging binary neutron star (BNS) systems can…
The impact of resistive electric fields on particle acceleration in reconnection layers
E. Puzzoni, A. Mignone, G. Bodo
In the context of particle acceleration in high-energy astrophysical environments featuring magnetic reconnection, the importance of the resistive term of the electric field compar…
A numerical study of the interplay between Fermi acceleration mechanisms in radio lobes of FR-II radio galaxies
Sayan Kundu, Bhargav Vaidya, Andrea Mignone +1
Context: Radio-loud AGNs are thought to possess various sites of particle acceleration, which gives rise to the observed non-thermal spectra. Stochastic turbulent acceleration (STA…
Modelling X-shaped Radio Galaxies: Dynamical and Emission Signatures from the Back-flow model
Gourab Giri, Bhargav Vaidya, Paola Rossi +3
Some of the radio galaxies show distortion in their jets, forming tailed or winged sources. X-shaped radio galaxies are a subclass of winged sources formation mechanism of which is…
