Stochastic Electron Acceleration in Shell-Type Supernova Remnants II
Siming Liu, Zhong-Hui Fan, Christopher L. Fryer
We discuss the generic characteristics of stochastic particle acceleration by a fully developed turbulence spectrum and show that resonant interactions of particles with high speed…
The Biermann Battery in Cosmological MHD Simulations of Population III Star Formation
Hao Xu, Brian W. O'Shea, David C. Collins +3
We report the results of the first self-consistent three-dimensional adaptive mesh refinement magnetohydrodynamical simulations of Population III star formation including the Bierm…
A Numerical Model of Hercules A by Magnetic Tower: Jet/Lobe Transition, Wiggling, and the Magnetic Field Distribution
Masanori Nakamura, Ian L. Tregillis, Hui Li +1
We apply magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) modeling to the radio galaxy Hercules A for investigating the jet-driven shock, jet/lobe transition, wiggling, and magnetic field distribution as…
Stochastic Electron Acceleration in Shell-Type Supernova Remnants
Siming Liu, Zhong-Hui Fan, Christopher L. Fryer +2
We study the stochastic electron acceleration by fast mode waves in the turbulent downstream of weakly magnetized collisionless astrophysical shocks. The acceleration is most effic…
Ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulation of magnetic bubble expansion as a model for extragalactic radio lobes
Wei Liu, Scott C. Hsu, Hui Li +2
Nonlinear ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of the propagation and expansion of a magnetic "bubble" plasma into a lower density, weakly-magnetized background plasma are p…
A cosmological AMR MHD module for Enzo
Hao Xu, David C. Collins, Michael L. Norman +2
Magnetic fields play an important role in almost all astrophysical phenomena including star formation. But due to the difficulty in analytic modeling and observation, magnetic fiel…
