An elevation of 0.1 light-seconds for the optical jet base in an accreting Galactic black hole system
Poshak Gandhi, Matteo Bachetti, Vik S. Dhillon +25
Relativistic plasma jets are observed in many accreting black holes. According to theory, coiled magnetic fields close to the black hole accelerate and collimate the plasma, leadin…
A new method for extending solutions to the self-similar relativistic magnetohydrodynamics equations for black hole outflows
Chiara Ceccobello, Yuri Cavecchi, Martin H. M. Heemskerk +3
The paradigm in which magnetic fields play a crucial role in launching/collimating outflows in many astrophysical objects continues to gain support. However, semi-analytical models…
The jet-disk symbiosis without maximal jets: 1-D hydrodynamical jets revisited
Patrick Crumley, Chiara Ceccobello, Riley M. T. Connors +1
In this work we discuss the recent criticism by Zdziarski of the maximal jet model derived in Falcke & Biermann (1995). We agree with Zdziarski that in general a jet's internal ene…
