Polarization Signatures of Kink Instabilities in the Blazar Emission Region from Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations
Haocheng Zhang, Hui Li, Fan Guo +1
Kink instabilities are likely to occur in the current-carrying magnetized plasma jets. Recent observations of the blazar radiation and polarization signatures suggest that the blaz…

Radiation and Polarization Signatures of 3D Multi-zone Time-dependent Hadronic Blazar Model
Haocheng Zhang, Chris Diltz, Markus Böttcher
We present a newly developed time-dependent three-dimensional multi-zone hadronic blazar emission model. By coupling a Fokker-Planck based lepto-hadronic particle evolution code 3D…

Collision-induced magnetic reconnection and a unified interpretation of polarization properties of GRBs and blazars
Wei Deng, Haocheng Zhang, Bing Zhang +1
The jet composition and energy dissipation mechanism of Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and Blazars are fundamental questions which remain not fully understood. One plausible model is to i…
