Title of the communication: Acceleration of relativistic plasma at
the ejection by fast rotating magnetized object.
Preliminary abstract (12 lines max.):
I intend to discuss the results of
an analytical and numerical analysis of a 3-dimensional axisymmetrical
time dependent plasma flow in the magnetosphere of a
fast rotating magnetized
object. Analytical approximate solution of the stationary
plasma flow in the magnetosphere of rotator is obtained. Plasma is not
accelerated and is not collimated in the limit of the fast mode surface
in this flow even at fast rotation of the central object when the light
cylinder is placed deeply inside the subsonic region. Numerical
simulations of the time dependent version of this problem confirm this
picture. Simultaneously they show that this stationary flow is not stable.
Evidence that plasma is accelerated due to the instability of the flow is
obtained.
