Magnetic reconnection with a 0.1 rate: Effective resistivity in general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics
B. Ripperda, M. P. Grehan, A. Moran +5
Relativistic magnetic reconnection is thought to power various multi-wavelength emission signatures from neutron stars and black holes. Relativistic resistive magnetohydrodynamics…
Intermittency in Collisionless Large-Amplitude Turbulence
Ryan Golant, Luca Comisso, Philipp Kempski +1
Large-amplitude turbulence -- characterized by a fluctuating magnetic field component, , that is stronger than the mean component, -- is generically intermittent, populat…
Filamentation of the electromagnetic precursor in relativistic quasi-perpendicular electron-positron shocks
Emanuele Sobacchi, Yuri Lyubarsky, Lorenzo Sironi +1
We present a scenario that could explain non-thermal particle acceleration in relativistic quasi-perpendicular electron-positron shocks, such as the termination shock of pulsar win…
On the universality of the split monopole black hole magnetosphere
S. Selvi, O. Porth, B. Ripperda +1
Black holes can acquire magnetic flux from their magnetized progenitor or via prolonged accretion. We study the evolution of black hole magnetospheres by means of axisymmetric gene…
Kinetic simulations of the Kruskal-Schwarzchild instability in accelerating striped outflows I: Dynamics and energy dissipation
William Groger, Hayk Hakobyan, Lorenzo Sironi
Astrophysical relativistic outflows are launched as Poynting-flux-dominated, yet the mechanism governing efficient magnetic dissipation, which powers the observed emission, is stil…
Propagation of strong electromagnetic waves in tenuous plasmas
Emanuele Sobacchi, Masanori Iwamoto, Lorenzo Sironi +1
We study the propagation of electromagnetic waves in tenuous plasmas, where the wave frequency, , is much larger than the plasma frequency, . We show that in pair p…
