We investigate the production of the gamma-ray spectrum of a Poynting-flux dominated GRB ouflow. The very high magnetic field strengths (super-equipartition) in such a flow lead to very efficient synchrotron emission. In contrast with…

Double-slit diffraction studies with photons or massive particles rank among the most beautiful experiments in physics. In particular, measurements at very low intensities demonstrate the particle-wave duality and the coherent superposition…

The inner degrees of the Galactic center contain a large population of filamentary structures observed at radio frequencies. These so-called non-thermal radio filaments (NRFs) trace magnetic field lines and have attracted significant…

We study the incandescence of a semiconductor system characterized by a radiatively broadened material excitation. We show that the shape of the emission spectrum and the peak emissivity value are determined by the ratio between radiative…

We investigate a scenario of photons scattering by electrons within a relativistic outflow. The outflow is composed of discrete shells with different speeds. One shell emits radiation for a short duration. Some of this radiation is…

To date, nearly all multi-wavelength modeling of long-duration gamma-ray bursts has ignored synchrotron radiation from the significant population of electrons expected to pass the shock without acceleration into a power-law distribution. We…

We calculate the flux and spectrum of \gamma-rays emitted by a two-temperature advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF) around a black hole. The \gamma-rays are from the decay of neutral pions produced through proton-proton collisions. We…
