Electron Heating in Low Mach Number Perpendicular shocks. II. Dependence on the Pre-Shock Conditions
Xinyi Guo, Lorenzo Sironi, Ramesh Narayan
Recent X-ray observations of merger shocks in galaxy clusters have shown that the post-shock plasma is two-temperature, with the protons being hotter than the electrons. In this wo…
Electron Heating in Low Mach Number Perpendicular shocks. I. Heating Mechanism
Xinyi Guo, Lorenzo Sironi, Ramesh Narayan
Recent X-ray observations of merger shocks in galaxy clusters have shown that the post-shock plasma is two-temperature, with the protons hotter than the electrons. By means of two-…
Interpreting MAD within multiple accretion regimes
Philip Mocz, Xinyi Guo
General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations of accreting black holes in the radiatively inefficient regime show that systems with sufficient magnetic poloidal flux…
Non-Thermal Electron Acceleration in Low Mach Number Collisionless Shocks. II. Firehose-Mediated Fermi Acceleration and its Dependence on Pre-Shock Conditions
Xinyi Guo, Lorenzo Sironi, Ramesh Narayan
Electron acceleration to non-thermal energies is known to occur in low Mach number (M<5) shocks in galaxy clusters and solar flares, but the electron acceleration mechanism remains…
Non-Thermal Electron Acceleration in Low Mach Number Collisionless Shocks. I. Particle Energy Spectra and Acceleration Mechanism
Xinyi Guo, Lorenzo Sironi, Ramesh Narayan
Electron acceleration to non-thermal energies in low Mach number (M<5) shocks is revealed by radio and X-ray observations of galaxy clusters and solar flares, but the electron acce…
Radio light curves during the passage of cloud G2 near Sgr A*
A. Sadowski, L. Sironi, D. Abarca +3
We calculate radio light curves produced by the bow shock that is likely to form in front of the G2 cloud when it penetrates the accretion disk of Sgr A*. The shock acceleration of…
Periodic Signals in Binary Microlensing Events
Xinyi Guo, Ann Esin, Rosanne Di Stefano +1
Gravitational microlensing events are powerful tools for the study of stellar populations. In particular, they can be used to discover and study a variety of binary systems. A larg…
