Relativistic Flows after Shock Emergence
We investigate relativistic flows after a shock wave generated in a star arrives at the surface. First, the sphericity effect is involved through a successive approximation procedure by adding correction terms to an already known self-similar solution in the ultra-relativistic limit assuming the plane parallel geometry. It is found that the lowest order correction terms are of the order of (a/R...
متن کاملA Shock-patching Code for Ultra-relativistic Fluid Flows
We have developed a one-dimensional code to solve ultra-relativistic hydrodynamic problems, using the Glimm method for an accurate treatment of shocks and contact discontinuities. The implementation of the Glimm method is based on an exact Riemann solver and van der Corput sampling sequence. In order to improve computational efficiency, the Glimm method is replaced by a finite differencing sche...
متن کاملCalculation of the relativistic bulk tensor and shear tensor of relativistic accretion flows in the Kerr metric.
In this paper, we calculate the relativistic bulk tensor and shear tensor of the relativistic accretion ows in the Kerr metric, overall and without any approximation. We obtain the relations of all components of the relativistic bulk and shear tensor in terms of components of four-velocity and its derivatives, Christoffel symbols and metric components in the BLF. Then, these components are deri...
متن کاملRelativistic Flows in Blazars
The radiation we observe from blazars is most likely the product of the transformation of bulk kinetic energy into random energy. This process must have a relatively small efficiency (e.g. 10%) if jets are to power the extended radio–structures. Recent results suggest that the average power reaching the extended radio regions and lobes is of the same order of that produced by accretion and illu...
متن کاملStrong Relativistic Collisionless Shock
A direct numerical simulation of a strong relativistic collisionless shock propagating into an unmagnetized medium has been performed in two spatial dimensions. It is found that: (i) collisionless shock exists, (ii) particle acceleration is insignificant, (iii) the shock does not generate “quasi-static” magnetic fields, contrary to recent claims by other authors. All our results agree with a si...
