Kinetic Simulations of the Kruskal–Schwarzschild Instability in Accelerating Striped Outflows: Dynamics and Energy Dissipation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Astrophysical relativistic outflows are launched as Poynting-flux dominated, yet the mechanism governing efficient magnetic dissipation, which powers the observed emission, is still poorly understood. We study magnetic energy dissipation in relativistic “

Relativistic Jet Motion in the Radio-quiet LINER Galaxy KISSR 872

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report superluminal jet motion with an apparent speed of β _app = 1.65 ± 0.57 in the radio-quiet (RQ) low-ionization nuclear emission-line region (LINER) galaxy KISSR 872.

Powering AGNs with super-critical black holes

open access: yes, 2009
We propose a novel mechanism for powering the central engines of Active Galactic Nuclei through super-critical (type II) black hole collapse. In this picture, ~$10^3 M_\odot$ of material collapsing at relativistic speeds can trigger a gravitational shock,
