General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic dynamo in thick accretion disks: fully nonlinear simulations
N. Tomei, L. Del Zanna, M. Bugli +1
The recent imaging of the M87 black hole at millimeter wavelengths by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration has triggered a renewed interest in numerical models for the a…
Fast Magnetic Reconnection: Secondary Tearing Instability and Role of the Hall Term
Emanuele Papini, Simone Landi, Luca Del Zanna
Magnetic reconnection provides the primary source for explosive energy release, plasma heating and particle acceleration in many astrophysical environments. The last years witnesse…
A Constrained Transport Method for the Solution of the Resistive Relativistic MHD Equations
A. Mignone, G. Mattia, G. Bodo +1
We describe a novel Godunov-type numerical method for solving the equations of resistive relativistic magnetohydrodynamics. In the proposed approach, the spatial components of both…
The Event Horizon General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic Code Comparison Project
Oliver Porth, Koushik Chatterjee, Ramesh Narayan +25
Recent developments in compact object astrophysics, especially the discovery of merging neutron stars by LIGO, the imaging of the black hole in M87 by the Event Horizon Telescope (…
[Plasma 2020 Decadal] The essential role of multi-point measurements in turbulence investigations: the solar wind beyond single scale and beyond the Taylor Hypothesis
W. H. Matthaeus, R. Bandyopadhyay, M. R. Brown +46
This paper briefly reviews a number of fundamental measurements that need to be made in order to characterize turbulence in space plasmas such as the solar wind. It has long been k…
