Extragalactic relativistic jets [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2011 Extragalactic relativistic jets are engines able to carry out to large distances a huge amount of power, not only in the form of radiation, but especially in the form of kinetic energy of matter and fields. As such, they can be thought as one of the most efficient engines of Nature, perhaps even more efficient than accretion.

Simulations of relativistic extragalactic jets [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 1994 We describe a method for the numerical solution of the relativistic Euler equations which we have found to be both robust and efficient, and which has enabled us to simulate relativistic jets. The technique employs a solver of the Godunov-type, with approximate solution of the local Riemann problems, applied to laboratory frame variables.

The relativistic Jet in M84 [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1996 The elliptical galaxy M84 (NGC 4374, UGC 07494) hosts an FR-I radio continuum source (Laing & Bridle 1987, MNRAS, 228, 557) and a dusty, warped optical emission line “disk” (Baumet al.1988, ApJS, 68, 643; Goudfrooijet al.1994, A&ApS, 105, 341).

Shock dynamics in relativistic jets [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2013 We present a formalism of the dynamics of internal shocks in relativistic jets where the source has a time-dependent injection velocity and mass-loss rate. The variation of the injection velocity produces a two-shock wave structure, the working surface, that moves along the jet.

New Astronomy Reviews, 2004 Despite substantial observational and theoretical progress over many years, numerous key questions surrounding the topic of relativistic jets remain to be answered. In particular we still do not know how they are ejected from the supermassive black holes that are implicated in their production and we do not know how the ejection of matter at ...

Relativistic Jets in Collapsars [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2003 We examine the propagation of 2-dimensional relativistic jets through the stellar progenitor in the collapsar model for gamma-ray bursts. In agreement with previous studies, we find that relativistic jets are collimated by their passage through the stellar mantle.

Galaxies, 2019 The particle-in-cell (PIC) method was developed to investigate microscopic phenomena, and with the advances in computing power, newly developed codes have been used for several fields, such as astrophysical, magnetospheric, and solar plasmas.
