• NUMERICAL TESTS OF FAST RECONNECTION IN WEAKLY STOCHASTIC MAGNETIC FIELDS (2009, methodology): “…testable observationally, since the resulting spectrum of accelerated particles is different from that arising from a shock. de Gouveia dal Pino & Lazarian (2001, 2005) used this mechanism of particle acceleration to explain the synchrotron power-law spectrum arising from the flares of…”

• Acceleration of primary and secondary particles in galaxy clusters by compressible MHD turbulence: from radio haloes to gamma-rays (2010, background): “As a particle bounces back and forth between converging magnetic fluxes, it gains energy through the first order Fermi acceleration (de Gouveia dal Pino & Lazarian 2003, 2005; see also Lazarian 2005).”
• General relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of magnetically choked accretion flows around black holes (2012, background): “MCAFs may also help explain the variety of spectral states seen in BH x-ray binaries (Rutledge et al. 1999; de Gouveia dal Pino & Lazarian 2005; Igumenshchev 2008, 2009).”
• Magnetic Reconnection in Astrophysical and (2009, background): “More recently, first-order Fermi acceleration of electrons was discussed by de Gouveia dal Pino & Lazarian (2005) and studied in a model of collisionless reconnection by Drake et al. (2006).”
• The Astrophysics of Ultrahigh-Energy Cosmic Rays (2011, background): “…that, in Poynting-flux dominated flows (e.g., flows with Poynting to kinetic flux ratio & 1), 1st order Fermi acceleration could aliment this mechanism, as particles reflected in the magnetized plasma could converge in the reconnection region (de Gouveia dal Pino & Lazarian 2005; Giannios 2010).”
