Magnetic Dissipation in Relativistic Jets

Magnetic Dissipation in Relativistic Jets

The most promising mechanisms for producing and accelerating relativistic jets, and maintaining collimated structure of relativistic jets involve magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) processes. We have investigated the magnetic dissipation mechanism in relativistic jets via relativistic MHD simulations...
