Compression Acceleration of Protons and Heavier Ions at the Heliospheric Current Sheet
Giulia Murtas, Xiaocan Li, Fan Guo
Recent observations by Parker Solar Probe (PSP) suggest that protons and heavier ions are accelerated to high energies by magnetic reconnection at the heliospheric current sheet (H…
Energetic Electrons Accelerated and Trapped in a Magnetic Bottle above a Solar Flare Arcade
Bin Chen, Xiangliang Kong, Sijie Yu +6
Where and how flares efficiently accelerate charged particles remains an unresolved question. Recent studies revealed that a "magnetic bottle" structure, which forms near the botto…
Plasma Dynamics and Nonthermal Particle Acceleration in 3D Nonrelativistic Magnetic Reconnection
Qile Zhang, Fan Guo, William Daughton +2
Understanding plasma dynamics and nonthermal particle acceleration in 3D magnetic reconnection has been a long-standing challenge. In this paper, we explore these problems by perfo…
Low-energy Injection and Nonthermal Particle Acceleration in Relativistic Magnetic Turbulence
Divjyot Singh, Omar French, Fan Guo +1
Relativistic magnetic turbulence has been proposed as a process for producing nonthermal particles in high-energy astrophysics. Particle energization may be contributed by both mag…
Proton Acceleration in Low-beta Magnetic Reconnection with Energetic Particle Feedback
Jeongbhin Seo, Fan Guo, Xiaocan Li +1
Magnetic reconnection regions in space and astrophysics are known as active particle acceleration sites. There is ample evidence showing that energetic particles can take a substan…
Modeling the inner part of the jet in M87: Confronting jet morphology with theory
Hai Yang, Feng Yuan, Hui Li +7
The formation of jets in black hole accretion systems is a long-standing problem. It has been proposed that a jet can be formed by extracting the rotation energy of the black hole…
