The Jets in Micro-Quasars and Quasars: A Comparison
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 March 2016
Abstract
The discovery of relativistic jets in radio emitting X-ray binaries in our own galaxy has led to the term ‘microquasar’ being coined for these objects. In this paper the properties of microquasars are compared with those of quasars and radio galaxies, with the aim of trying to see how the similarities and differences can inform us about the physical conditions and evolution of jets. GRS1915+105 and SS433 are also discussed in more detail.
