Relativistic Shocks: Particle Acceleration and Magnetic Field Generation, and Emission
K. -I. Nishikawa, P. Hardee, G. Richardson +3
Shock acceleration is an ubiquitous phenomenon in astrophysical plasmas. Plasma waves and their associated instabilities (e.g.,Buneman, Weibel and other two-stream instabilities) c…
Particle Acceleration, Magnetic Field Generation, and Emission in Relativistic Shocks
K. -I. Nishikawa, P. Hardee, C. B. Hededal +4
Shock acceleration is an ubiquitous phenomenon in astrophysical plasmas. Plasma waves and their associated instabilities (e.g., Buneman, Weibel and other two-stream instabilities)…
Particle Acceleration and Magnetic Field Generation in Electron-Positron Relativistic Shocks
K. -I. Nishikawa, P. Hardee, G. Richardson +3
Shock acceleration is an ubiquitous phenomenon in astrophysical plasmas. Plasma waves and their associated instabilities (e.g., Buneman, Weibel and other two-stream instabilities)…
A General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamics Simulation of Jet Formation
K. -I. Nishikawa, G. Richardson, S. Koide +4
We have performed a fully three-dimensional general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulation of jet formation from a thin accretion disk around a Schwarzschild black hol…
