Magnetized Current Filaments as a Source of Circularly Polarized Light

U. Sinha, J. Martins, J. Vieira +3

We show that the Weibel or currente filamentation instability can lead to the emission of circularly polarized radiation. Using particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations and a radiation p…

Bright gamma-ray flares powered by magnetic reconnection in QED-strength magnetic fields

K. M. Schoeffler, T. Grismayer, D. Uzdensky +2

Strong magnetic fields in magnetospheres of neutron stars (especially magnetars) and other astrophysical objects may release their energy in violent, intense episodes of magnetic r…
