Failed jet breakout in the metal-poor broad-lined type Ic supernova 2026gzf
Antonio Martin-Carrillo, Christina C. Thöne, James K. Leung +103
A long-standing question in the death of massive stars is the role of relativistic jets. While many gamma-ray bursts and some fast X-ray transients seem to be associated with broad…
Reconfinement of highly magnetized jets: Implications for HST-1 in M87
Amir Levinson, Noemie Globus
Stationary features are occasionally observed in AGN jets. A notable example is the HST-1 knot in M87. Such features are commonly interpreted as re-confinement shocks in hydrodynam…
The collimation of magnetic jets by disk winds
Noemie Globus, Amir Levinson
The collimation of a Poynting-flux dominated jet by a wind emanating from the surface of an accretion flow is computed using a semi-analytic model. The injection of the disk wind i…
The effect of Compton drag on the dynamics of dissipative Poynting dominated flows: Implications for the unification of radio loud AGN
Amir Levinson, Noemie Globus
The dynamics of a dissipative Poynting dominated flow subject to a radiation drag due to Compton scattering of ambient photons by relativistic electrons accelerated in reconnecting…
Jet formation in GRBs: A semi-analytic model of MHD flow in Kerr geometry with realistic plasma injection
Noemie Globus, Amir Levinson
We construct a semi-analytic model for MHD flows in Kerr geometry, that incorporates energy loading via neutrino annihilation on magnetic field lines threading the horizon. We comp…
Magnetic collimation of meridional-self-similar general relativistic MHD flows
Noemie Globus, Christophe Sauty, Véronique Cayatte +1
We present a model for the spine of relativistic MHD outflows in the Kerr geometry. Meridional self-similarity is invoked to derive semi-analytical solutions close to the polar axi…
Plasma injection and outflow formation in Kerr black holes
Noemie Globus, Amir Levinson
We discuss the role plasma injection plays in the formation of outflows in Kerr spacetime. Using a model for the double flow established in the polar region of a rotating black hol…
Loaded magnetohydrodynamic flows in Kerr spacetime
Noemie Globus, Amir Levinson
The effect of mass and energy loading on the efficiency at which energy can be extracted magnetically from a Kerr black hole is explored, using a semi-analytic, ideal MHD model tha…
Ultra-relativistic, neutrino driven flows in GRBs: A double transonic flow solution in Schwarzschild spacetime
Amir Levinson, Noemie Globus
The structure of a hydrodynamic, double transonic flow driven by neutrino annihilation in the polar region of a Schwarzschild black hole is computed for different energy deposition…
