First-principles measurement of ion and electron energization in collisionless accretion flow
Evgeny A. Gorbunov, Fabio Bacchini, Vladimir Zhdankin +3
We present the largest 3D Particle-in-Cell shearing-box simulations of turbulence driven by the magnetorotational instability, for the first time employing the realistic proton-to-…
Radiatively Cooled Magnetic Reconnection Experiments Driven by Pulsed Power
R Datta, K Chandler, C E Myers +20
We present evidence for strong radiative cooling in a pulsed-power-driven magnetic reconnection experiment. Two aluminum exploding wire arrays, driven by a 20 MA peak current, 300…
Simulations of Radiatively Cooled Magnetic Reconnection Driven by Pulsed Power
Rishabh Datta, Aidan J. Crilly, Jeremy P. Chittenden +12
Magnetic reconnection is an important process in astrophysical environments, as it re-configures magnetic field topology and converts magnetic energy into thermal and kinetic energ…
Collisionless Magnetorotational Turbulence in Pair Plasmas: Steady-state Dynamics, Particle Acceleration, and Radiative Cooling
Fabio Bacchini, Vladimir Zhdankin, Evgeny A. Gorbunov +4
We present 3D fully kinetic shearing-box simulations of pair-plasma magnetorotational turbulence with unprecedented macro-to-microscopic scale separation. While retrieving the expe…
