The Log-normal Distributions of Physical Quantities of Flare associated Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs), and Flare/CME Model of Gamma-ray Bursts
Seiichiro I. Aoki, Seiji Yashiro, Kazunari Shibata
We investigated the statistical distributions of physical quantities of solar flares and associated coronal mass ejections (CMEs). We found that the distributions of the X-ray peak…
MHD Jets, Flares, and Gamma Ray Bursts
Kazunari Shibata, Seiichiro Aoki
Recent numerical simulations of MHD jets from accretion disks are briefly reviewed with emphasis on the scaling law for jet speed and the role of magnetic reconnection in relation…
3-D GRMHD Simulations of Generating Jets
K. -I. Nishikawa, S. Koide, K. Shibata +2
We have performed a first fully 3-D GRMHD simulation with Schwarzschild black hole with a free falling corona. The initial simulation results show that a jet is created as in the p…
General Relativistic Simulations of Jet Formation by a Rapidly Rotating Black Hole
Shinji Koide, David L. Meier, Kazunari Shibata +1
Recent observations of Galactic Black Hole Candidates (BHCs) suggest that those that are superluminal jet sources have more rapid black hole spin rates than otherwise normal BHCs.…
