When astrophysical jets were discovered one hundred years ago, the field of numerical
simulations did not yet exit. Since the arrival of programmable computers though, numerical …

We have investigated the development of current-driven (CD) kink instability through three-
dimensional relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations. A static force-free equilibrium …

Using the three-dimensional relativistic magnetohydrodynamic code RAISHIN, we
investigated the influence of the radial density profile on the spatial development of the …

We have investigated the influence of a velocity shear surface on the linear and nonlinear
development of the current-driven (CD) kink instability of force-free helical magnetic …

Jets are produced by young stellar objects (YSOs), by black hole binary star system
“microquasars”(μQSOs), by active galactic nuclei (AGN), are associated with neutron stars …

We numerically investigate the long-term temporal evolution of magnetized jets where the
computational domain covers multiple wavelengths (up to 10) of the fastest growing Kelvin …

Relativistic jets are associated with microquasars and active galactic nuclei (AGN), and
thought responsible for the gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). The acceleration, collimation and …

We perform a numerical simulation of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) radially self-similar
jets, whose prototype is the Blandford & Payne analytical example. The final steady state …

Context. Magnetohydrodynamic instabilities can be responsible for the formation of
structures with various scales in astrophysical jets. Aims. We consider the stability properties …

Relativistic jets, be they Poynting flux or kinetic flux dominated, are current driven (CD)
and/or Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) velocity shear driven unstable. These macroscopic MHD …
