Relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei and microquasars
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 …

Dynamically important magnetic fields near accreting supermassive black holes
Accreting supermassive black holes at the centres of active galaxies often produce 'jets'—
collimated bipolar outflows of relativistic particles. Magnetic fields probably play a critical …
