Relativistic jets have been observed and studied in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) for about half a century and are believed to be fueled by accretion onto a supermassive black hole at the center of the host galaxy. Since the first discovery of relativistic jets associated with so-called "micro-quasars" much more recently, it has seemed clear that much of the physics governing the relativistic outflows in stellar X-ray binaries harboring black holes and in AGN must be common, but acting on very different spatial and temporal scales. With new observational and theoretical results piling up every day, this book attempts to synthesize a consistent, unified physical picture of the formation and disruption of jets in accreting black-hole systems. The chapters in this book offer overviews accessible not only to specialists but also to graduate students and astrophysicists working in other areas. Covered topics comprise Relativistic jets in stellar systems Launching of AGN jets Parsec-scale AGN jets Kiloparsec-scale AGN jets Black hole magnetospheres Theory of relativistic jets The structure and dynamics of the inner accretion disk The origin of the jet magnetic field X-ray observations, phenomenology, and connection with theory 000724254 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from pdf information screen (viewed November 14, 2014). 000724254 650_0 $$aBlack holes (Astronomy) 000724254 650_0 $$aAstrophysical jets. 000724254 7001_ $$aContopoulos, Ioannis,$$eeditor. 000724254 7001_ $$aGabuzda, Denise,$$eeditor. 000724254 7001_ $$aKylafis, N.,$$eeditor. 000724254 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319103556 000724254 830_0 $$aAstrophysics and space science library ;$$v414. 000724254 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000724254 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-10356-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000724254 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:724254$$pGLOBAL_SET 000724254 980__ $$aEBOOK 000724254 980__ $$aBIB 000724254 982__ $$aEbook 000724254 983__ $$aOnline 000724254 994__ $$a92$$bISE
