Laboratory plasma astrophysics simulation experiments using lasers
Laboratory astroplasma physics experiments advance both our astrophysics and plasma physics knowledge. Contemporary high-energy, high-power laser technology enables us to reproduce in the laboratory the conditions of temperature and pressure that are met

Anisotropic Particle Acceleration in Alfvénic Turbulence
Alfvénic turbulence is an effective mechanism for particle acceleration in strongly magnetized, relativistic plasma. In this study, we investigate a scenario where turbulent plasma is influenced by a strong guide magnetic field, resulting in highly ...

The Evolution of Parallel Electric Field Across the Earth's Magnetosheath
Abstract In Earth's collisionless magnetosheath, turbulence evolution and energy transformation across the system, especially at kinetic scales, remain poorly quantified without full‐coverage of high‐resolution observations. Using multi‐traversal observations from the 2023 and 2024 Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) Unbiased Magnetosheath Campaign, we ...

Abstract Along the flank magnetopause, magnetosheath flow interfaced with the relatively stationary magnetosphere produces strong flow shears, and the Kelvin‐Helmholtz instability (KHI) occurs. When the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) is southward, anti‐parallel day‐side reconnection and KHI can interact, which may enhance the reconnection rate as ...

Relativistic Astrophysical Plasmas
Selected theoretical topics in high energy astrophysics are discussed. Firstly an account is given of accretion disks around a massive black hole and radiation processes in hot thermal plasmas. Then recent studies on the effects of electron-positron pairs in relativistic thermal plasmas are summarized.
