Particle acceleration in electron-ion jets
K. -I. Nishikawa, P. Hardee, C. B. Hededal +6
Weibel instability created in collisionless shocks is responsible for particle (electron, positron, and ion) acceleration. Using a 3-D relativistic electromagnetic particle (REMP)…
Particle acceleration, magnetic field generation, and emission in relativistic pair jets
K. -I. Nishikawa, P. Hardee, C. B. Hededal +4
Shock acceleration is a ubiquitous phenomenon in astrophysical plasmas. Plasma waves and their associated instabilities (e.g., Buneman, Weibel and other two-stream instabilities) c…
Testing the Gamma-Ray Burst Energy Relationships
David L. Band, Robert D. Preece
Building on Nakar & Piran's analysis of the Amati relation relating gamma-ray burst peak energies E_p and isotropic energies E_iso, we test the consistency of a large sample of BAT…
