Analysing and controlling the tax evasion dynamics via majority-vote model
Within the context of agent-based Monte-Carlo simulations, we study the
well-known majority-vote model (MVM) with noise applied to tax evasion on
simple square lattices, Voronoi-Delaunay random lattices, Barabasi-Albert
networks, and Erd\"os-R\'enyi random graphs. In the order to analyse and to
control the fluctuations for tax evasion in the economics model proposed by
Zaklan, MVM is applied in the neighborhod of the noise critical . The
Zaklan model had been studied recently using the equilibrium Ising model. Here
we show that the Zaklan model is robust and can be reproduced also through the
nonequilibrium MVM on various topologies.Comment: 18 pages, 7 figures, LAWNP'09, 200

The role of pressure anisotropy in the turbulent intracluster medium
In low-density plasma environments, such as the intracluster medium (ICM),
the Larmour frequency is much larger than the ion-ion collision frequency. In
such a case, the thermal pressure becomes anisotropic with respect to the
magnetic field orientation and the evolution of the turbulent gas is more
correctly described by a kinetic approach. A possible description of these
collisionless scenarios is given by the so-called kinetic magnetohydrodynamic
(KMHD) formalism, in which particles freely stream along the field lines, while
moving with the field lines in the perpendicular direction. In this way a
fluid-like behavior in the perpendicular plane is restored. In this work, we
study fast growing magnetic fluctuations in the smallest scales which operate
in the collisionless plasma that fills the ICM. In particular, we focus on the
impact of a particular evolution of the pressure anisotropy and its
implications for the turbulent dynamics of observables under the conditions
prevailing in the ICM. We present results from numerical simulations and
compare the results which those obtained using an MHD formalism.Comment: 7 pages, 14 figures, Journal of Physics: Conference Serie
Features of collisionless turbulence in the intracluster medium from simulated Faraday Rotation maps
Observations of the intracluster medium (ICM) in galaxy clusters suggest for
the presence of turbulence and the magnetic fields existence has been proved
through observations of Faraday Rotation and synchrotron emission. The ICM is
also known to be filled by a rarefied weakly collisional plasma. In this work
we study the possible signatures left on Faraday Rotation maps by collisionless
instabilities. For this purpose we use a numerical approach to investigate the
dynamics of the turbulence in collisionless plasmas based on an
magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) formalism taking into account different levels of
pressure anisotropy. We consider models covering the sub/super-Alfv\'enic and
trans/supersonic regimes, one of them representing the fiducial conditions
corresponding to the ICM. From the simulated models we compute Faraday Rotation
maps and analyze several statistical indicators in order to characterize the
magnetic field structure and compare the results obtained with the
collisionless model to those obtained using standard collisional MHD framework.
We find that important imprints of the pressure anisotropy prevails in the
magnetic field and also manifest in the associated Faraday Rotation maps which
evidence smaller correlation lengths in the collisionless MHD case. These
points are remarkably noticeable for the case mimicking the conditions
prevailing in ICM. Nevertheless, in this study we have neglected the decrease
of pressure anisotropy due to the feedback of the instabilities that naturally
arise in collisionless plasmas at small scales. This decrease may not affect
the statistical imprint differences described above, but should be examined
elsewhere.Comment: 24 pages, 15 figures, MNRAS accepte
