Title: Particle Acceleration and Radiation in Electromagnetic Jets and Collisionless Shocks 
Authors: Edison Liang and Koichi Noguchi 
Topic: 3 
Session: oral 
Abstract: We summarize latest computer simulations of particle acceleration and radiation mechanisms 
by both electromagnetic-driven jets and collisionless shocks, using 3D particle-in-cell codes with radiation. 
We show how spectra, polarization and variability depend on magnetic field, Lorentz factor, pair loading and density. 
and discuss their applications to AGN data.
