Oblique Collision of a Relativistic Cold Shell with an Ideal Reflecting Wall
Jonathan Granot, Prasanta Bera, Michael Rabinovich +1
Relativistic flows are common in astrophysics and often form shocks when different parts of the flow collide at relativistic relative velocities. Such collisions are often oblique,…
Astrophysics with Compact Objects: An Indian Perspective, Present Status and Future Vision
Manjari Bagchi, Prasanta Bera, Aru Beri +18
Astrophysical compact objects, viz., white dwarfs, neutron stars, and black holes, are the remnants of stellar deaths at the end of their life cycles. They are ideal testbeds for v…
A Numerical Study of Relativistic Oblique Shock Reflection
Prasanta Bera, Jonathan Granot, Michael Rabinovich +1
Shocks are ubiquitous in astrophysical sources, many of which involve relativistic bulk motions, leading to the formation of relativistic shocks. Such relativistic shocks have so f…
QPOs from post-shock accretion column of strongly magnetized accreting white dwarfs
Prasanta Bera
An extended magnetosphere of a strongly magnetized accreting white dwarf (known as a polar) prevents the formation of an accretion disk and the matter is channelled to the magnetic…
Does elasticity stabilise a magnetic neutron star?
Prasanta Bera, D. I. Jones, Nils Andersson
The configuration of the magnetic field in the interior of a neutron star is mostly unknown from observations. Theoretical models of the interior magnetic field geometry tend to be…
The Origin of Large-Scale Magnetic Fields in Low-Mass Galaxies
Prasanta Bera, Anvar Shukurov, Kandaswamy Subramanian
The origin of large-scale magnetic fields, detected in some low-mass (dwarf and irregular) galaxies via polarised synchrotron emission and Faraday rotation, remained unexplained fo…
