Stochastic Ion Acceleration by the Ion-cyclotron Instability in a Growing Magnetic Field
Francisco Ley, Mario Riquelme, Lorenzo Sironi +2
Using 1D and 2D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of a plasma with a growing magnetic field , we show that ions can be stochastically accelerated by the ion-cyclotron (IC…
Stochastic Electron Acceleration by the Whistler Instability in a Growing Magnetic Field
Mario Riquelme, Alvaro Osorio, Eliot Quataert
We use 2D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations to study the effect of the saturated whistler instability on the viscous heating and nonthermal acceleration of electrons in a shearing…
The microphysics of collisionless shock waves
A. Marcowith, A. Bret, A. Bykov +12
Collisionless shocks, that is shocks mediated by electromagnetic processes, are customary in space physics and in astrophysics. They are to be found in a great variety of objects a…
Lower Metal Enrichment of Virialized Gas in Minihalos
Renyue Cen, Mario A. Riquelme
We differentiate between the metal enrichment of the gas in virialized minihalos and that of the intergalactic medium at high redshift, pertinent to cosmological reionization, with…
Neutrino emission rates in highly magnetized neutron stars revisited
Mario Riquelme, Andreas Reisenegger, Olivier Espinosa +1
Magnetars are a subclass of neutron stars whose intense soft-gamma-ray bursts and quiescent X-ray emission are believed to be powered by the decay of a strong internal magnetic fie…
