Relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei and microquasars

GE Romero, M Boettcher, S Markoff… - Space Science Reviews, 2017 - Springer
Collimated outflows (jets) appear to be a ubiquitous phenomenon associated with the
accretion of material onto a compact object. Despite this ubiquity, many fundamental physics …

The structure of hydrodynamic γ-ray burst jets

O Gottlieb, E Nakar, O Bromberg - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
After being launched, gamma-ray burst (GRB) jets propagate through dense media prior to
their breakout. The jet-medium interaction results in the formation of a complex structured …
