Periodic activity from fast radio burst FRB180916 explained in the frameof the orbiting asteroid model
Guillaume Voisin, Fabrice Mottez, Philippe Zarka
Observation of fast radio bursts (FRBs) are rising very quickly with the advent of specialised instruments and surveys, and it has recently been shown that some of them repeat quas…
General solution for the vacuum electromagnetic field in the surroundings of a rotating star
S. Bonazzola, F. Mottez, J. Heyvaerts
Aims. Many recent observations of pulsars and magnetars can be interpreted in terms of neutron stars (NS) with multipole electromagnetic fields. As a first approximation, we invest…
Repeating fast radio bursts caused by small bodies orbiting a pulsar or a magnetar
Fabrice Mottez, Philippe Zarka, Guillaume Voisin
Asteroids orbiting into the highly magnetized and highly relativistic wind of a pulsar offer a favourable configuration for repeating fast radio bursts (FRB). The body in direct co…
Electron acceleration and small scale coherent structures formation by an Alfvén wave propagating in coronal interplume region
Khalil Daiffallah, Fabrice Mottez
We use 2.5-D electromagnetic particle-in-cell simulation code to investigate the acceleration of electrons in solar coronal holes through the interaction of Alfvén waves with an in…
The Giant Radio Array for Neutrino Detection (GRAND): Science and Design
GRAND Collaboration, Jaime Alvarez-Muniz, Rafael Alves Batista +48
The Giant Radio Array for Neutrino Detection (GRAND) is a planned large-scale observatory of ultra-high-energy (UHE) cosmic particles, with energies exceeding 10^8 GeV. Its goal is…
Electron-positron pair production by gamma rays in an anisotropic flux of soft photons, and application to pulsar polar caps
Guillaume Voisin, Fabrice Mottez, Silvano Bonazzola
Electron-positron pair production by collision of photons is investigated in view of application to pulsar physics. We compute the absorption rate of individual gamma-ray photons b…
