Particle acceleration and pitch-angle evolution in relativistic turbulence
Daniel Humphrey, Cristian Vega, Stanislav Boldyrev +1
Synchrotron radiation detected from relativistic astrophysical objects such as pulsar-wind nebulae and {jets from active galactic nuclei} depends on the magnetic fields and the dis…

Whistler-Alfvén turbulence in a non-neutral ultrarelativistic pair plasma
Stanislav Boldyrev, Mikhail Medvedev
The large-scale dynamics of most conventional space and astrophysical plasmas are predominantly governed by Alfvén modes, which are low-frequency magnetohydrodynamic modes existin…

Anisotropic particle acceleration in Alfvénic turbulence
Cristian Vega, Stanislav Boldyrev, Vadim Roytershteyn
Alfvénic turbulence is an effective mechanism for particle acceleration in strongly magnetized, relativistic plasma. In this study, we investigate a scenario where turbulent plasm…
