The content of astrophysical jets
arXiv:2106.14346 · doi:10.1002/asna.202113989
Abstract
Jets, collimated outflows of particles and fields, are observed in a wide variety of astrophysical systems, including Active Galactic Nuclei of various types, microquasars, gamma-ray bursts, and young stellar objects. Despite intensive efforts along several decades of observational and theoretical research, there are still many uncertainties and open questions related to how jets are produced and what is their composition. In this review I offer an outline of some current views on the content and basic properties of astrophysical jets.
