Radiation from Particles Accelerated in Relativistic Jet Shocks and Shear-flows
K. -I. Nishikawa, P. Hardee, I. Dutan +12
We have investigated particle acceleration and emission from shocks and shear flows associated with an unmagnetized relativistic jet plasma propagating into an unmagnetized ambient…
Magnetic Field Generation in Core-Sheath Jets via the Kinetic Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability
K. -I. Nishikawa, P. E. Hardee, I. Dutan +8
We have investigated magnetic field generation in velocity shears via the kinetic Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (kKHI) using a relativistic plasma jet core and stationary plasma she…
Spatial Growth of the Current-Driven Instability in Relativistic Jets
Yosuke Mizuno, Philip E. Hardee, Ken-Ichi Nishikawa
We have investigated the influence of velocity shear and a radial density profile on the spatial development of the current driven kink instability along helically magnetized relat…
Magnetic Field Amplification and Saturation in Turbulence Behind a Relativistic Shock
Yosuke Mizuno, Martin Pohl, Jacek Niemiec +3
We have investigated via two-dimensional relativistic MHD simulations the long-term evolution of turbulence created by a relativistic shock propagating through an inhomogeneous med…
