Tleco: A Toolkit for Modeling Radiative Signatures from Relativistic Outflows
Zachary Davis, Jesús M. Rueda-Becerril, Dimitrios Giannios
A wide range of astrophysical sources exhibit extreme and rapidly varying electromagnetic emission indicative of efficient non-thermal particle acceleration. Understanding these so…
Balancing Turbulent Heating with Radiative Cooling in Blazars
Zachary Davis, Jesús M. Rueda-Becerril, Dimitrios Giannios
Recently, particle in cell (PIC) simulations have shown that relativistic turbulence in collisionless plasmas can result in an equilibrium particle distribution function where turb…
Handing off the outcome of binary neutron star mergers for accurate and long-term post-merger simulations
Federico G. Lopez Armengol, Zachariah B. Etienne, Scott C. Noble +20
We perform binary neutron star (BNS) merger simulations in full dynamical general relativity with IllinoisGRMHD, on a Cartesian grid with adaptive-mesh refinement. After the remnan…
HARM3D+NUC: A new method for simulating the post-merger phase of binary neutron star mergers with GRMHD, tabulated EOS and neutrino leakage
Ariadna Murguia-Berthier, Scott C. Noble, Luke F. Roberts +25
The first binary neutron star merger has already been detected in gravitational waves. The signal was accompanied by an electromagnetic counterpart including a kilonova component p…
The blazar sequence revised
Jesús M. Rueda-Becerril, Amanda O. Harrison, Dimitrios Giannios
We propose and test a fairly simple idea that could account for the blazar sequence: all jets are launched with similar energy per baryon, independently of their power. For instanc…
A numerical approach for radiative cooling in relativistic outflows
Jesús M. Rueda-Becerril
In high energy astrophysics scenarios such as blazars, GRBs or PWNe, it is highly probable that ultra-relativistic particles interact with photons in their environment through scat…
Blazar jets launched with similar energy per baryon, independently of their power
Jesus M. Rueda-Becerril, Amanda O. Harrison, Dimitrios Giannios
The most extreme active galactic nuclei (AGN) are the radio active ones whose relativistic jet propagates close to our line of sight. These objects were first classified according…
Inverse Compton Signatures of Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows
Hao Zhang, Ian Christie, Maria Petropoulou +2
The afterglow emission from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is believed to originate from a relativistic blast wave driven into the circumburst medium. Although the afterglow emission from…
On the influence of a Hybrid Thermal-Non thermal distribution in the Internal Shocks model for blazars
Jesus M. Rueda-Becerril, Petar Mimica, Miguel-A. Aloy
Internal shocks occurring in blazars may accelerate both thermal and non-thermal electrons. In this paper we examine the consequences that such a hybrid (thermal/non-thermal) EED h…
Numerical simulations of the internal shock model in magnetized relativistic jets of blazars
Jesus M. Rueda-Becerril, Petar Mimica, Miguel A. Aloy
The internal shocks scenario in relativistic jets is used to explain the variability of the blazar emission. Recent studies have shown that the magnetic field significantly alters…
The influence of the magnetic field on the spectral properties of blazars
J. M. Rueda-Becerril, P. Mimica, M. A. Aloy
We explore the signature imprinted by dynamically relevant magnetic fields on the spectral energy distribution (SED) of blazars. It is assumed that the emission from these sources…
Numerical study of broadband spectra caused by internal shocks in magnetized relativistic jets of blazars
Jesus M. Rueda-Becerril, Petar Mimica, Miguel A. Aloy +1
The internal-shocks scenario in relativistic jets has been used to explain the variability of blazars' outflow emission. Recent simulations have shown that the magnetic field alter…
Numerical simulations of dynamics and emission from relativistic astrophysical jets
Petar Mimica, Miguel Angel Aloy, Jesus M. Rueda-Becerril +2
Broadband emission from relativistic outflows (jets) of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) contains valuable information about the nature of the jet itself, a…
Spherical Boson Stars as Black Hole mimickers
F. S. Guzman, J. M. Rueda-Becerril
We present spherically symmetric boson stars as black hole mimickers based on the power spectrum of a simple accretion disk model. The free parameters of the boson star are the mas…
