Polarization of synchrotron radiation from blazar jets
Filippo Bolis, Emanuele Sobacchi, Fabrizio Tavecchio
Supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) launch relativistic jets that shine through the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Blazars are a subclass of AGN where non-t…
Escape of fast radio bursts from magnetars
Emanuele Sobacchi, Masanori Iwamoto, Lorenzo Sironi +1
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright extragalactic transients likely produced by magnetars. We study the propagation of FRBs in magnetar winds, assuming that the wind is strongly ma…
Propagation of strong electromagnetic waves in tenuous plasmas
Emanuele Sobacchi, Masanori Iwamoto, Lorenzo Sironi +1
We study the propagation of electromagnetic waves in tenuous plasmas, where the wave frequency, , is much larger than the plasma frequency, . We show that in pair p…
Multifrequency polarimetry of High-Synchrotron Peaked blazars probes the shape of their jets
F. Bolis, E. Sobacchi, F. Tavecchio
Multifrequency polarimetry is emerging as a powerful probe of blazar jets, especially due to the advent of the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) space observatory. We study…
Magnetic field morphology and evolution in the Central Molecular Zone and its effect on gas dynamics
R. G. Tress, M. C. Sormani, P. Girichidis +34
The interstellar medium in the Milky Way's Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) is known to be strongly magnetised, but its large-scale morphology and impact on the gas dynamics are not we…
