Deceleration of arbitrarily magnetized GRB ejecta: the complete evolution
P. Mimica, D. Giannios, M. A. Aloy
(Abridged) We aim to quantitatively understand the dynamical effect and observational signatures of magnetization of the GRB ejecta on the onset of the afterglow. We perform ultrah…

Observational Effects of Anomalous Boundary Layers in Relativistic Jets
M. A. Aloy, P. Mimica
Recent theoretical work has pointed out that the transition layer between a jet an the medium surrounding it may be more complex than previously thought. Under physically realizabl…

An RMHD study of transition between prompt and afterglow GRB phases
Petar Mimica, Dimitrios Giannios, Miguel-Angel Aloy
We study the afterglow phases of a GRB through relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations. The evolution of a relativistic shell propagating into a homogeneous external medium is…
