Constraining Active Galactic Nucleus Jets with Spectrum and Core Shift: The Case of M87
Kouichi Hirotani, Hsien Shang, Ruben Krasnopolsky +3
We analytically model stationary and axisymmetric active galactic nucleus jets, assuming energy conservation along each magnetic flux tube. Using very-long-baseline interferometry…

Synthetic Spectra from Particle-in-cell Simulations of Relativistic Jets containing an initial Toroidal Magnetic Field
Ioana Dutan, Kenichi Nishikawa, Athina Meli +6
The properties of relativistic jets, their interaction with the environment, and their emission of radiation can be self-consistently studied by using collisionless particle-in-cel…

R-JET: A postprocessing code for radiative transport in relativistic jets
Kouichi Hirotani, Hsien Shang, Ruben Krasnopolsky +1
We describe a post-processing radiative transport code for computing the spectra, the coreshift, and the surface-brightness distribution of special relativistic jets with arbitrary…
