چکیده

We calculate the jet power of the classical Blandford-Znajek (BZ) model and hybrid model developed by Meier based on the global solutions of advection dominated accretion flows (ADAFs) surrounding Kerr black holes. We find that the jet power of the hybrid model is larger than that of the pure BZ model. The jet power will dominate over the accretion power, and the objects will enter into “jet-power-dominated advective systems," when the accretion rate is less than a critical value ṁc = Ṁc/ṀEdd, where 3×10−4 . ṁc . 5×10−3 is a function of black hole spin parameter. The accretion power will be dominant when ṁ & ṁc and the objects will enter into “accretion-power-dominated advective systems." This is roughly consistent with that constrained from the low/hard-state black hole X-ray binaries (e.g., Fender et al.). We calculate the maximal jet power as a function of black hole mass with the hybrid jet formation model, and find it can roughly reproduce the dividing line of the Ledlow-Owen relation for FR I/FR II dichotomy in the jet power-black hole(BH) mass plane (Qjet −MBH) if the dimensionless accretion rate ṁ∼ 0.01 and BH spin parameter j ∼ 0.9 − 0.99 are adopted. This accretion rate ṁ ∼ 0.01 is consistent with that of the critical accretion rate for the accretion mode transition of a standard disk to an ADAF constrained from the state transition of X-ray binaries. Our results imply that most FR I galaxies may be in the ADAF accretion mode similar to the low/hard-state XRBs.

Jet power extracted from ADAF and the applications to X-ray binaries and radio galaxy FR dichotomy

We calculate the jet power of the classical Blandford-Znajek (BZ) model and hybrid model developed by Meier (2001) based on the global solutions of advection dominated accretion flows (ADAFs) surrounding Kerr black holes. We find that the jet power of the hybrid model is larger than that of the pure BZ model. The jet power will dominate over the accretion power and the objects will enter into “...

On the Bl Lacertae Objects/radio Quasars and the Fri/ii Dichotomy

In the frame of unification schemes for radio-loud active galactic nuclei (AGNs), FR I radio galaxies are believed to be BL Lacertae (BL Lac) objects with the relativistic jet misaligned to our line of sight, and FR II radio galaxies correspond to misaligned radio quasars. The Ledlow-Owen dividing line for FR I/FR II dichotomy in the optical absolute magnitude of host galaxy–radio luminosity (M...

Forty Years of X-Ray Binaries

In 2012 it was forty years ago that the discovery of the first X-ray binary Centaurus X-3 became known. That same year it was discovered that apart from the High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) there are also Low-Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs), and that Cygnus X-1 is most probably a black hole. By 1975 also the new class of Be/X-ray binaries was discovered. After this it took 28 years before ESAs INTE...

The influence of AGN nuclear parameters on the FRI/FRII dichotomy

We have investigated the influence of nuclear parameters such as black hole mass and photoionizing luminosity on the FRI/FRII transition in a sample of nearby (z < 0.2) radio galaxies from the 3CR catalogue. The sample was observed with medium-resolution, optical spectroscopy and contains some galaxies with unpublished velocity dispersion measurements and emission-line fluxes. The measured velo...

Emissive Mechansim of Radio Flat Spectrum on X-ray Binaries

We present that the radio emission with flat spectrum in X-ray binaries comes from the synchrotron emission of relativistic electrons in the high energy tail of hot electrons in continuous conical jet. The jet is assumed to be produced by the advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF) and maintains ion and electron temperatures constant in the case of adiabatic steady conical expansion. The flat...
