THE NUCLEAR SPECTROSCOPIC TELESCOPE ARRAY (NuSTAR) HIGH-ENERGY X-RAY MISSION

Fiona A. Harrison, +84 more
TL;DR: The Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) as discussed by the authors is the first focusing high-energy X-ray telescope in orbit, which operates in the band from 3 to 79 keV.

Magnetohydrodynamic Production of Relativistic Jets

TL;DR: A magnetohydrodynamic model may explain the basic features of observed jets, including their speed and amount of collimation, and some of the details in the behavior and statistics of different jet-producing sources.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relativistic Jets from Active Galactic Nuclei

TL;DR: The nuclei of most normal galaxies contain supermassive black holes, which can accrete gas through a disk and become active as mentioned in this paper, and these active galactic nuclei can form jets that are observed on s...

The Association of Jet Production with Geometrically Thick Accretion Flows and Black Hole Rotation

TL;DR: In this paper, the strongest radio-emitting jet outflows are produced in black hole systems when the accretion is a geometrically thick (H/R ~ 1) inflow (e.g., an advection-dominated or a convectiondominated flow) and if the black hole is rotating.
