Particle acceleration during magnetic reconnection in ultrarelativistic electron-positron plasmas
In pulsar winds and jets from AGNs, plasma is considered to be composed of ultrarelativistic electrons and positrons with their Lorentz factors 10^3 to 10^6. How these high energy particles are produced is an open question, and magnetic reconnection is one of mechanisms to accelerate particles. We study magnetic reconnection in ultrarelativistic electron-positron plasmas by means of 2-D simulations that include kinetics of particle motion, and investigate particle acceleration mechanisms and energy spectra of accelerated particles.
