Observational Evidence of Accretion Disk-Caused Jet Precession in Galactic Nuclei
arXiv:astro-ph/0511212 · doi:10.1086/499333
Abstract
We show that the observational data of extragalactic radio sources tend to support the theoretical relationship between the jet precession period and the optical luminosity of the sources, as predicted by the model in which an accretion disk causes the central black hole to precess.
