Black hole flares: ejection of accreted magnetic flux through 3D plasmoid-mediated reconnection
Magnetic reconnection can power bright, rapid flares originating from the inner
magnetosphere of accreting black holes. We conduct extremely high-resolution (5376× …

Kinematics of Parsec-scale Jets of Gamma-Ray Blazars at 43 GHz during 10 yr of the VLBA-BU-BLAZAR Program
We analyze the parsec-scale jet kinematics from 2007 June to 2018 December of a sample
of γ-ray bright blazars monitored roughly monthly with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) …

Leptonic and hadronic modeling of Fermi-detected blazars
We describe new implementations of leptonic and hadronic models for the broadband
emission from relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei in a temporary steady state. For the …

Relativistic reconnection: an efficient source of non-thermal particles
In magnetized astrophysical outflows, the dissipation of field energy into particle energy via
magnetic reconnection is often invoked to explain the observed non-thermal signatures. By …

The birth of a relativistic jet following the disruption of a star by a cosmological black hole
A black hole can launch a powerful relativistic jet after it tidally disrupts a star. If this jet
fortuitously aligns with our line of sight, the overall brightness is Doppler boosted by several …

The internal-collision-induced magnetic reconnection and turbulence (ICMART) model of gamma-ray bursts
The recent Fermi observation of GRB 080916C shows that the bright photosphere emission
associated with a putative fireball is missing, which suggests that the central engine likely …
