The astrophysical F18(p,α)O15 rate determines, in large part, the extent to which the observable radioisotope 18F is produced in novae. This rate, however, has been extremely uncertain owing to the unknown properties of a strong subthreshold resonance ...

Magnetic Tower Outflows from a Radial Wire Array Z-pinch [PDF]
We present the first results of high energy density laboratory astrophysics experiments which explore the evolution of collimated outflows and jets driven by a toroidal magnetic field.

This paper reports on a well-defined EUV wave associated with a coronal mass ejection (CME) observed on 2022 March 25. The CME was observed by Solar Orbiter (SolO) during its first close perihelion (0.32 au) and by several other spacecraft from different

Scaled laboratory experiments explain the kink behaviour of the Crab Nebula jet
The periodical change of the Crab nebula’s jet direction challenges our understanding of astrophysical jet dynamics. Here the authors use high-power lasers to create a jet that can be directly compared to the Crab nebula’s, and report the detection of ...

Jet collimation in the ejecta of double neutron star merger: new canonical picture of short gamma-ray bursts [PDF]
The observations of jet breaks in the afterglows of short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) indicate that the jet has a small opening angle of < 10{\deg}. The collimation mechanism of the jet is a longstanding theoretical problem.

Jet Deflection via Cross winds: Laboratory Astrophysical Studies [PDF]
We present new data from High Energy Density (HED) laboratory experiments designed to explore the interaction of a heavy hypersonic radiative jet with a cross wind.

Multiple Sub-Jet Model of Gamma Ray Bursts and Possible Origin of X-ray Precursors and Post-cursors [PDF]
We assume that internal shocks of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) consist of multiple sub-jets with a collimation half-angle $\sim {\rm several }\times\gamma_i^{-1}$, where $\gamma_i$ is the Lorenz factor of each sub-jet.

On the structure and stability of magnetic tower jets [PDF]
Modern theoretical models of astrophysical jets combine accretion, rotation, and magnetic fields to launch and collimate supersonic flows from a central source. Near the source, magnetic field strengths must be large enough to collimate the jet requiring

The Role of Macroscopic and Microscopic Jet Instabilities
Relativistic jets, be they Poynting flux or kinetic flux dominated, are current driven (CD) and/or Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) velocity shear driven unstable. These macroscopic MHD instabilities may be responsible for some of the observed larger scale twisted ...

Astrophysical Neutrinos and Blazars
We review and discuss recent results on the search for correlations between astrophysical neutrinos and γ-ray-detected sources, with many extragalactic studies reporting potential associations with different types of blazars.
