Abstract | A transient event Swift J1644+57 is thought to be caused by the emission from a collimated relativistic jet. The jet, powered by the sudden onset of accretion onto a supermassive black hole following the tidal disruption of a star, collides with the gaseous circumnuclear medium and produces forward and reverse shocks which emit synchrotron radiation. We perform 1D and 2D relativistic hydrodynamic simulations using the MRGENESIS code. The aim of the simulations is to study the dynamics of a jet thought to exist in transient events such as Swift J1644+57, as discussed in recent literature. We discuss 1D and 2D jet evolution, on-axis radio light curves and differences between 1D and 2D jet dynamics. |
