Radiative cooling in relativistic collisionless shocks. Can simulations and experiments probe relevant GRB physics?
Mikhail V. Medvedev, Anatoly Spitkovsky
We address the question of whether numerical particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations and laboratory laser-plasma experiments can (or will be able to, in the near future) model realistic…

Magnetic field evolution in relativistic unmagnetized collisionless shocks
Uri Keshet, Boaz Katz, Anatoly Spitkovsky +1
We study relativistic unmagnetized collisionless shocks using unprecedentedly large particle-in-cell simulations of two-dimensional pair plasma. High energy particles accelerated b…
