Stellar explosions powered by the Blandford-Znajek mechanism
M. V. Barkov, S. S. Komissarov
In this letter we briefly describe the first results of our numerical study on the possibility of magnetic origin of relativistic jets of long duration gamma ray bursters within th…

Magnetar-energized supernova explosions and GRB-jets
S. S. Komissarov, M. V. Barkov
In this paper we report on the early evolution of core-collapse supernova explosion following the birth of a magnetar with the dipolar magnetic field of B=10^{15}G and the rotation…

Magnetic acceleration of relativistic AGN jets
S. S. Komissarov, M. V. Barkov, N. Vlahakis +1
We present numerical simulations of axisymmetric, magnetically driven relativistic jets. To eliminate the dissipative effects induced by a free boundary with an ambient medium we a…
