Relativistic MHD simulations of pulsar bow-shock nebulae
N. Bucciantini, E. Amato, L. Del Zanna
Pulsar bow-shock nebulae are a class of pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) that form when the pulsar wind is confined by the ram pressure of the ambient medium, and are usually associated…
Transverse oscillations in solar coronal loops induced by propagating Alfvenic pulses
Luca Del Zanna, Eveline Schaekens, Marco Velli
The propagation and the evolution of Alfvenic pulses in the solar coronal arcades is investigated by means of MHD numerical simulations. Significant transverse oscillations in coro…
Magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability for Pulsar Wind Nebulae in expanding Supernova Remnants
N. Bucciantini, E. Amato, R. Bandiera +2
We present a numerical investigation of the development of Rayleigh-Taylor instability at the interface between an expanding Pulsar Wind Nebula and its surrounding Supernova Remnan…
Axially symmetric relativistic MHD simulations of Pulsar Wind Nebulae in Supernova Remnants - On the origin of torus and jet-like features
L. Del Zanna, E. Amato, N. Bucciantini
The structure and the evolution of Pulsar Wind Nebulae (PWNe) are studied by means of two-dimensional axisymmetric relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (RMHD) simulations. After the fi…
The effects of spin-down on the structure and evolution of pulsar wind nebulae
N. Bucciantini, R. Bandiera, J. M. Blondin +2
We present high resolution spherically symmetric relativistic magnetohydrodynamical simulations of the evolution of a pulsar wind nebula inside the free expanding ejecta of the sup…
