Description
Relativistic jets are powerful collimated outflows from accreting compact objects, especially spinning black holes. Jets, as well as their associated mechanisms of energy dissipation and particle acceleration, can be investigated by global or local numerical simulations using methods like general-relativistic magneto-hydro-dynamics (GRMHD), particle-in-cell (PIC), etc. This presentation highlights selected results from 3 projects related to relativistic jets.
