The PLUTO Code on GPUs: Offloading Lagrangian Particle Methods

Alessio Suriano, Stefano Truzzi, Agnese Costa +5

The Lagrangian Particles (LP) module of the PLUTO code offers a powerful simulation tool to predict the non-thermal emission produced by shock accelerated particles in large-scale…

Instabilities at recollimation shocks in MHD jets

Stella Boula, Fabrizio Tavecchio, Gianluigi Bodo +4

AGN jet structure and stability remain uncertain; recollimation shocks are linked to morphology and variability, but the role of downstream instabilities is still unclear. We aim t…

How do recollimation-induced instabilities shape the propagation of hydrodynamic relativistic jets?

A. Costa, G. Bodo, F. Tavecchio +4

Recollimation is a phenomenon of particular importance in the dynamic evolution of jets and in the emission of high-energy radiation. Additionally, the full comprehension of this p…

The polarization of the synchrotron radiation from a recollimated jet: application to high-energy BL Lacs

Alberto Sciaccaluga, Agnese Costa, Fabrizio Tavecchio +3

Multifrequency polarimetry, recently extended to the X-ray band thanks to the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) satellite, is an essential tool for understanding blazar jet…

Stochastic acceleration in Extreme TeV BL Lacs through MCMC

Alberto Sciaccaluga, Fabrizio Tavecchio, Marco Landoni +1

Extreme TeV BL Lacs are a class of blazars with unique spectral and temporal features, not easily reproducible using standard one-zone models based on single shock acceleration. To…

FR0 jets and recollimation-induced instabilities

A. Costa, G. Bodo, F. Tavecchio +6

The recently discovered population of faint FR0 radiogalaxies has been interpreted as the extension to low power of the classical FRI sources. Their radio emission appears to be co…
