MHD simulations of three-dimensional Resistive Reconnection in a cylindrical plasma column

Edoardo Striani, Andrea Mignone, Bhargav Vaidya +2

Magnetic reconnection is a plasma phenomenon where a topological rearrangement of magnetic field lines with opposite polarity results in dissipation of magnetic energy into heat, k…

Pulsar-Wind Nebulae: Recent Progress in Observations and Theory

Oleg Kargaltsev, Benoit Cerutti, Yuri Lyubarsky +1

In this review we describe recent observational and theoretical developments in our understanding of pulsar winds and pulsar-wind nebulae (PWNe). We put special emphasis on the res…

The blob crashes into the mirror: modelling the exceptional gamma-ray flaring activity of 3C 454.3 in November 2010

V. Vittorini, M. Tavani, A. Cavaliere +2

We focus on the exceptional flaring activity of 3C 454.3 in November 2010 and we discuss a theoretical framework addressing all data in their overall evolution. For two weeks the s…

GAMMA-LIGHT: High-Energy Astrophysics above 10 MeV

Aldo Morselli, Andrea Argan, Guido Barbiellini +39

High-energy phenomena in the cosmos, and in particular processes leading to the emission of gamma- rays in the energy range 10 MeV - 100 GeV, play a very special role in the unders…

An updated list of AGILE bright gamma-ray sources and their variability in pointing mode

F. Verrecchia, C. Pittori, A. W. Chen +76

We present a variability study of a sample of bright gamma-ray (30 MeV -- 50 GeV) sources. This sample is an extension of the first AGILE catalogue of gamma-ray sources (1AGL), obt…
