Bhjet: a public multi-zone, steady state jet + thermal corona spectral model

M. Lucchini, C. Ceccobello, S. Markoff +7

Accreting black holes are sources of major interest in astronomy, particular those launching jets because of their ability to accelerate particles, and dramatically affect their su…

A new lepto-hadronic model applied to the first simultaneous multiwavelength data set for Cygnus X--1

D. Kantzas, S. Markoff, T. Beuchert +10

Cygnus X--1 is the first Galactic source confirmed to host an accreting black hole. It has been detected across the entire electromagnetic spectrum from radio to GeV -rays. The…

Dynamic Monte Carlo Simulations of Radiatively Accelerated GRB Fireballs

Atul Chhotray, Davide Lazzati

We present a novel Dynamic Monte Carlo code (DynaMo code) which self-consistently simulates the Compton scattering driven dynamic evolution of a plasma. We use the DynaMo code to i…

On radiative acceleration in spine-sheath structured blazar jets

Atul Chhotray, Francesco Nappo, Gabriele Ghisellini +3

It has been proposed that blazar jets are structured, with a fast spine surrounded by a slower sheath or layer. This structured jet model explains some properties of their emission…

Gamma-ray burst spectra and spectral correlations from sub-photospheric Comptonization

Atul Chhotray, Davide Lazzati

One of the most important unresolved issues in gamma-ray burst physics is the origin of the prompt gamma-ray spectrum. Its general non-thermal character and the softness in the X-r…
