Slide15

Do jet-producing systems have accretion disks?What are the

absolutely necessary ingredients for the mechanism of jet acceleration and collimation?YSOs

Yes

SSS

YesH/LMXBsYesBHXTsYesGRBsWe don’t knowAGNYesPNeNot clear

Slide17

X-Ray Spectroscopy of Accretion Disks in AGNsMCG-6-30-15

Gravitational redshift plus Doppler shift

Slide18

Do Jets Require an Accretion Disk?

Qualified Yes“Interacting winds”, “ion torus”, Pulsars, GRBs, need more work

Slide19

Do Accretion Disks Require Jets or Outflows?

Are outflows/jets the main mechanism for transport/removal of angular momentum?Angular momentum carried by wind

Slide20

Do Accretion Disks Require Jets or Outflows?

Angular momentum that needs to be removed from disk

For

r

A ~ 10r, only 1% of the accreted mass needs to be lost in wind.

Slide21

Behavior of Disk Radius During Dwarf Nova Outburst

At outburst, matter diffuses inward. Angular momentum of that matter is transferred to outer parts of the disk.

Radius expands

Observationally:

Disks in U Gem, OY Car, HT Cas and Z Cha larger in outburst.U Gem

Slide22

Behavior of Disk Radius During

Dwarf Nova OutburstTheory: disk instability

Slide23

Do accretion disks require jets or outflows for angular momentum removal?

Probably not.More observations of rotation in jets and bipolar outflows are needed (velocity gradients).

Slide25

Other Clues on JetsJets originate from the

center of the accretion disk!Models which work at all radii are probably not the “correct” ones, (e.g. self similar).

Slide26

Black Hole Jets – x-ray transients

Two states: dissipation and disk luminosity, bulk flow and jet.

Slide30

What Does Work?

A reasonably ordered large-scale magnetic field threading the disk!

Slide31

Magneto-Centrifugal Jet Acceleration and Collimation

Acceleration like a bead on a wire up to the Alfven surface. Acceleration optimal around inclination of 60°.

Slide32

Collimation Outside Alfven Surface

Collimation by hoop stress?

BUT

Kink Instability

Slide33

Poloidal CollimationNecessary Conditions

Rdisk/Robject = Significant number of decades Bz

largest at inner disk but

largest at

outer disk e.g. Bz ~ (r/Rin)-1Good collimation obtained forRAlfven ~ RdiskConsequencesMinimum opening angle of jetΘmin ~ (Rin/Rout)1/2

Slide37

Short GRB: Collision of Two Neutron Stars

Slide38

Are There Additional Ingredients?Why are there radio-loud and radio-quiet AGN?

Why do CVs appear not to produce jets while SSS do?How can pulsars produce jets?

Slide39

ConjectureThe production of powerful jets requires an additional heat/wind source.

Solutions to transsonic flow in disk corona: for strong B a potential difference exists even for i > 30 (Δφ ~ B4

)

.

Slide42

Simulation results for

spinning black holeOutgoing velocity ~0.4-0.6c in funnel wall jetPoynting flux dominates within funnelBoth pressure and Lorentz forces important for acceleration

Existence of funnel jet depends on establishing radial funnel field

Jet luminosity increases with hole spin – Poynting flux jet is powered by the black hole
