Compton driven beam formation and magnetisation via plasma microinstabilities
read the original abstract
Compton scattering of gamma rays propagating in a pair plasma can drive the formation of a relativistic electron positron beam. This process is scrutinised theoretically and numerically via particle-in-cell simulations. In addition, we determine in which conditions the beam can prompt a beam-plasma instability and convert its kinetic energy into magnetic energy. We argue that such conditions can be met at the photosphere radius of bright Gamma Ray Bursts.

Trapped fireshell (halo) of photons and pairs around black-hole horizon: source for ultra-high-energy particles
The paper predicts a Klein-Nishina 'runaway' that accelerates electrons and protons to ultra-high energies inside a gravitationally trapped photon-pair halo, with a time-declining UHE luminosity.
