Relativistic stellar jets: dynamics and non-thermal radiation
Relativistic stellar jets, produced in binary systems called microquasars, propagate through media with different spatial scales releasing their energy in the form of work and radiation from radio to gamma rays. There are several medium-interaction scenarios that these jets can face. In particular, in relativistic stellar jets the presence of a star is an unavoidable element whose importance de...
متن کاملThermal material in relativistic jets
The properties of thermal material coexisting with non–thermal emitting plasma and strong magnetic field in the powerful jets of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are examined. Theoretical and observational constraints on the physical properties of this ‘cold’ component are determined. While the presence of a thermal component occupying a fraction ∼ 10 of the jet volume is possible, it seems unlikel...
متن کاملPropagation and Dynamics of Relativistic Jets
We investigate the dynamics and morphology of jets propagating into the interstellar medium using 2D relativistic hydrodynamic simulations. The calculations are performed assuming axisymmetric geometry and trace a long propagation of jets. The jets are assumed to be ’light’ with the density ratio between the beam to the ambient gas much less than unity. We examine the mechanism for the appearan...
متن کاملNon - Relativistic Radio Jets and Parsec - ScaleAbsorption
The Very Long Baseline Array has been used to image the milliarcsecond-scale 15-GHz radio emission from the Seyfert galaxies Mrk 231 and Mrk 348 at two epochs separated by about 1.7 yr. Both galaxies contain parsec-scale double radio sources, whose components have brightness temperatures of 10 9 {10 11 K, indicating that they are generated by synchrotron emission and probably associated with ra...
