Magnetohydrodynamic Effects in Propagating Relativistic Jets: Reverse Shock and Magnetic Acceleration
Yosuke Mizuno, Bing Zhang, Bruno Giacomazzo +4
We solve the Riemann problem for the deceleration of an arbitrarily magnetized relativistic flow injected into a static unmagnetized medium in one dimension. We find that for the s…

Faranoff-Riley type I jet deceleration at density discontinuities "Relativistic hydrodynamics with realistic equation of state"
Z. Meliani, R. Keppens, B. Giacomazzo
The deceleration mechanisms for relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei remain an open question, and in this paper we propose a model which could explain sudden jet deceleratio…
