Radiative PIC simulations of relativistic pair plasma: multiple interacting current sheets and turbulent evolution
Fulvia Pucci, Elena Amato, Dario Borgogno +5
Two-dimensional relativistic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of radiative magnetic reconnection in pair plasmas with multiple interacting current sheets are carried out to mimic…
AGILE detection of transient γ-ray emission from the region of the supergiant fast X-ray transient source IGR J17354-3255
Andrea Bulgarelli, Gabriele Panebianco, Vito Sguera +16
Context. On April 14, 2009, the AGILE satellite detected a γ-ray flare from an unknown transient source. Subsequent X-ray follow-up observations with Swift and INTEGRAL identified…
Exploring GRB Afterglows in the TeV Era: New Diagnostics of Particle Acceleration
L. Foffano, M. Tavani
The TeV gamma-ray band is essential for probing the most extreme particle acceleration processes in the Universe. The recent detections of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) at these energies…
TeV Afterglows of Gamma-Ray Bursts: Theoretical Analysis and Prospects for Future Observations
L. Foffano, M. Tavani
Recent detections of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) at TeV energies opened new prospects for investigating radiative environments and particle acceleration mechanisms under extreme condit…
