Kinetic simulations of the lowest-order unstable mode of relativistic magnetostatic equilibria

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the results of particle-in-cell numerical pair plasma simulations of relativistic 2D magnetostatic equilibria known as the ABC fields, focusing on the lowest order unstable configuration consisting of two minima and two maxima of the magnetic vector potential.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bounds on intergalactic compact objects from observations of compact radio sources

TL;DR: In this paper, the cosmic density of uniformly distributed intergalactic compact objects in the mass range of 10 million to 1 billion solar masses, using VLBI observations of compact radio sources, using an Einstein-de Sitter cosmology, is defined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hitomi Observations of the LMC SNR N132D: Highly Redshifted X-ray Emission from Iron Ejecta

Felix Aharonian, +192 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Hitomi observations of N132D, a young, X-ray bright, O-rich core-collapse supernova remnant in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), were used to detect the line complexes of highly ionized S K and Fe K with 16-17 counts.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Gravitational Lens B1608+656: I. V, I, and H-band HST Imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-wavelength analysis of high-resolution observations of the quadruple lens B1608+656 from the HST archive, acquired with WFPC2 through filters F606W (V-band) and F814W (I-band), and with NIC1 in filter F160W (H-band).
