    Relativistic outflows are ubiquitous in high-energy cosmic phenomena. Whether their reservoir of free energy at launch is in the form of bulk kinetic, magnetic or gravitational, it is ultimately channeled into energetic particles and non-thermal radiation. A key question is to understand how this transfer operates efficiently and under which conditions. In this talk, I will review some of the...

    In the broad-band spectra of blazars there are two broad and widely separated maxima. According to the existing paradigm, the origin of the lower-frequency maximum is explained by the synchrotron radiation of accelerated electrons, and the higher-frequency maximum is produced via inverse Compton radiation from the same population electrons. This paradigm makes it necessary to adopt such...

    The Weibel instability occurs in collisionless plasma with the temperature anisotropy. It is thought to be important for particle acceleration and generation of magnetic fields in relativistic shocks. Observations of afterglows of gamma ray bursts (GRBs) suggest that magnetic fields are amplified in the large downstream regions of relativistic shocks. However, the magnetic field produced by...

    Markarian 421 is one the most extreme blazars characterized by complex, unpredictable timing/spectral variability, exclusively strong X-ray flares in some epochs, very broad, nonthermal spectral energy distribution (SED) extending over 19 orders of the frequency and showing a typical two-"hump" structure. The lower-energy component, ranging from the radio to X-rays, is widely accepted to...
