活动星系核中的喷流

Jets in Active Galactic Nuclei

A. P. Marscher

摘要:

活动星系核的喷流可以将黑洞系统的大部分吸积能量携带到星际甚至河外空间。它们从无线电到X射线和伽马射线频率大量辐射。在最极端的情况下,向外的流动速度对应于可以达到40或更高的高洛伦兹因子。本章展示了各种波段的图像,以及光变曲线和连续光谱,说明了紧凑的,秒差距和亚秒差距尺度的喷流的发射随位置,时间和频率的变化。它提出了一个物理框架,从这些数据的结构和动力学过程的许多方面进行调查。

英文摘要:

The jets of active galactic nuclei can carry a large fraction of the accreted power of the black-hole system into interstellar and even extragalactic space. They radiate profusely from radio to X-ray and gamma-ray frequencies. In the most extreme cases, the outward flow speeds correspond to high Lorentz factors that can reach 40 or more. This chapter displays images at various wavebands as well as light curves and continuum spectra that illustrate the variability with location, time, and frequency of the emission from compact, parsec- and subparsec-scale jets. It presents a physical framework for investigating many aspects of the structure and dynamical processes from such data.
