Classification of magnetized star--planet interactions: bow shocks, tails, and inspiraling flows
Titos Matsakos, Ana Uribe, Arieh Königl
Close-in exoplanets interact with their host stars gravitationally as well as via their magnetized plasma outflows. The rich dynamics that arises may result in distinct observable…
Magnetic acceleration of ultra-relativistic jets in gamma-ray burst sources
Serguei Komissarov, Nektarios Vlahakis, Arieh Konigl +1
We present a relativistic-MHD numerical study of axisymmetric, magnetically driven jets with parameters applicable to gamma-ray burst (GRB) flows. We also present analytic expressi…
Angular momentum transport in protostellar discs
Raquel Salmeron, Arieh Konigl, Mark Wardle
Angular momentum transport in protostellar discs can take place either radially, through turbulence induced by the magnetorotational instability (MRI), or vertically, through the t…
Hubble Space Telescope Ultraviolet Spectroscopy of Fourteen Low-Redshift Quasars
Rajib Ganguly, Michael S. Brotherton, Nahum Arav +35
We present low-resolution ultraviolet spectra of 14 low redshift (z<0.8) quasars observed with HST/STIS as part of a Snap project to understand the relationship between quasar outf…
Implications of the Early X-Ray Afterglow Light Curves of Swift GRBs
Jonathan Granot, Arieh Konigl, Tsvi Piran
According to current models, gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are produced when the energy carried by a relativistic outflow is dissipated and converted into radiation. The efficiency of th…
Are Magnetic Wind-Driving Disks Inherently Unstable?
Arieh Konigl
There have been claims in the literature that accretion disks in which a centrifugally driven wind is the dominant mode of angular momentum transport are inherently unstable. This…
