Probing the Internal Structure of Magnetized, Relativistic Jets with Numerical Simulations

open access: yesGalaxies, 2016
From an observational point of view, unveiling the physical processes behind the nature of the jets emanating from radio-loud AGN demands the resolution of the structure across the jet with the highest angular resolutions.

Relativistic Jets in Collapsars [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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.

Relativistic Jet Simulations of the Weibel Instability in the Slab Model to Cylindrical Jets with Helical Magnetic Fields

open access: yesGalaxies, 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.

A powerful hydrodynamic booster for relativistic jets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Velocities close to the speed of light are a robust observational property of the jets observed in microquasars and AGNs, and are expected to be behind much of the phenomenology of GRBs. Yet, the mechanism boosting relativistic jets to such large Lorentz

Relativistic Jets in Core-collapse Supernovae [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2019
Abstract After decades of extensive research the mechanism driving core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) is still unclear. One common mechanism is a neutrino-driven outflow, but others have been proposed. Among those, a long-standing idea is that jets play an important role in supernova (SN) explosions. Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) that accompany “

Relativistic stellar jets: dynamics and non-thermal radiation

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Relativistic stellar jets, produced in binary systems called microquasars, propagate through media with different spatial scales releasing their energy in the form of work and radiation from radio to gamma rays.

COUNTER-ROTATION IN RELATIVISTIC MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMIC JETS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2014
Young stellar object observations suggest that some jets rotate in the opposite direction with respect to their disk. In a recent study, Sauty et al. (2012) have shown that this does not contradict the magnetocentrifugal mechanism that is believed to launch such outflows.

The Morphology and Dynamics of Relativistic Jets with Relativistic Equation of State

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We study the effect of plasma composition on the dynamics and morphology of relativistic astrophysical jets. Our work is based on a relativistic total variation diminishing simulation code.

Relativistic Jets from X-ray binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
In this review I summarise the status of observational research into relativistic jets from X-ray binaries, highlighting four areas in particular: (i) How relativistic are the jets ?, (ii) The disc : jet coupling, (iii) the nature of the underlying flat ...
