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…
