Description for The Jet Paradigm: From Microquasars to Quasars
Hardback. A broad approach, moving from microquasars to AGN, to the topic of accretion/ejection in relativistic jet sources that discusses both observational and theoretical aspects. Based on lecture notes, the book benefits students of jet astrophysics at all levels. Editor(s): Belloni, Tomaso. Series: Lecture Notes in Physics. Num Pages: 295 pages, 103 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHR; PHVB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 20. Weight in Grams: 675.
The discovery of the ?rst case of superluminal radio jets in our galaxy in 1994 from the bright and peculiar X-ray source GRS 1915+105 has opened the way to a major shift in the direction of studies of stellar-mass accreting binaries. The past decade has seen an impressive increase in multi-wavelength studies. It is now known that all black hole binaries in our galaxy are radio sources and most likely their radio emission originates from a powerful jet. In addition to the spectacular events related to the ejection of superluminal jets, steady jets are known from many systems. Compared with ... Read more
