Evolution of Global Relativistic Jets: Collimations and Expansion with kKHI and the Weibel Instability
K. I Nishikawa, J. T. Frederiksen, A. Nordlund +10
One of the key open questions in the study of relativistic jets is their interaction with the environment. Here, we study the initial evolution of both electron-proton and electron…
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…
Radiation from accelerated particles in relativistic jets with shocks, shear-flow, and reconnection
K. -I. Nishikawa, P. Hardee, B. Zhang +11
We have investigated particle acceleration and shock structure associated with an unmagnetized relativistic jet propagating into an unmagnetized plasma. Strong magnetic fields gene…
Radiation from relativistic shocks with turbulent magnetic fields
K. -I. Nishikawa, J. Niemiec, M. Medvedev +10
Using our new 3-D relativistic electromagnetic particle (REMP) code parallelized with MPI, we investigated long-term particle acceleration associated with a relativistic electron-p…
Radiation from relativistic jets in turbulent magnetic fields
K. -I. Nishikawa, M. Medvedev, B. Zhang +7
Using our new 3-D relativistic electromagnetic particle (REMP) code parallelized with MPI, we have investigated long-term particle acceleration associated with an relativistic elec…
In-situ Particle Acceleration in Collisionless Shocks
C. B. Hededal, T. Haugboelle, J. T. Frederiksen +1
The outflows from gamma ray bursts, active galactic nuclei and relativistic jets in general interact with the surrounding media through collisionless shocks. With three dimensional…
