Laboratory astrophysics using high energy lasers: need for 2D simulation

open access: yes, 2008
A certain number of experiments have been performed and planned for the future aiming to reproduce in a laboratory common astrophysical situations [1].

High-Energy Astrophysics in the 2020s and Beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
With each passing decade, we gain new appreciation for the dynamic, connected, and often violent nature of the Universe. This reality necessarily places the study of high-energy processes at the very heart of modern astrophysics.

General relativity and relativistic astrophysics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Einstein established the theory of general relativity and the corresponding field equation in 1915 and its vacuum solutions were obtained by Schwarzschild and Kerr for, respectively, static and rotating black holes, in 1916 and 1963, respectively.

Probing the close environment of young stellar objects with interferometry

open access: yes, 2003
The study of Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) is one of the most exciting topics that can be undertaken by long baseline optical interferometry. The magnitudes of these objects are at the edge of capabilities of current optical interferometers, limiting the ...

Quasi-Periodic Oscillations from Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries with Neutron Stars

open access: yes, 2004
Before the launch of the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) it was recognized that neutron star accretion disks could extend inward to very near the neutron star surface, and thus be governed by millisecond timescales.

The Wisconsin Plasma Astrophysics Laboratory

open access: yes, 2015
The Wisconsin Plasma Astrophysics Laboratory (WiPAL) is a flexible user facility designed to study a range of astrophysically relevant plasma processes as well as novel geometries that mimic astrophysical systems. A multi-cusp magnetic bucket constructed

NR/HEP: roadmap for the future [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Physic in curved spacetime describes a multitude of phenomena, ranging from astrophysics to high-energy physics (HEP). The last few years have witnessed further progress on several fronts, including the accurate numerical evolution of the gravitational ...

The formation of planetary disks and winds: an ultraviolet view

open access: yes, 2008
Planetary systems are angular momentum reservoirs generated during star formation. This accretion process produces very powerful engines able to drive the optical jets and the molecular outflows.

Amplification of MHD waves in swirling astrophysical flows

open access: yes, 2003
Recently it was found that helical magnetized flows efficiently amplify Alfv\'en waves (Rogava et al. 2003, A&A, v.399, p.421). This robust and manifold nonmodal effect was found to involve regimes of transient algebraic growth (for purely ejectional ...

The IceCube Realtime Alert System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Although high-energy astrophysical neutrinos were discovered in 2013, their origin is still unknown. Aiming for the identification of an electromagnetic counterpart of a rapidly fading source, we have implemented a realtime analysis framework for the ...
