  3. Jets in AGNs and close binaries AGN: MBH=108-109 M0 L<~LEdd~1042-1047 erg/s < few Mpc Г~5-50 Δt~hours-years CBS: MBH~10 M0 L<~LEdd~1037-1040 erg/s ~pc Г~1-10 Δt~days (see astro-ph/0611521)

  4. Close-by and far-away jets GB1508+5714 z=4.30 3C273

  5. Classification of AGN radio jets FR I. Two-sided jets. Jets dominate in the emission. Usually are found in rich clusters. FR II.One-sided jets. Radio lobes dominate over jets. Moslty isolated galaxies or poor groups. (astro-ph/0406319)

  6. X-ray jets Quasars atz: 0.6-1.5 X-ray energy rangefrom 0.5 to 7 keV. Energy distribution for different parts of jets. Equipartition andcondition for IC of CMB. (astro-ph/0306317)

  7. X-ray emission from “knots” is due to IC of relict photons on the same e- which produce radio synchrotron. δ=(Γ(1-βcosθ)) -1

  8. Magnetic field in a jet Observations of M87 tell us that the magnetic field in the jet is mostly parallel to the jet axis, but inthe emission regions (“knots”) it becomes perpendicular (see astro-ph/0406319). The same structure is observed in several jetswith radio lobes.

  9. Blobs in jets It is believed that bright featuresin AGN jets can be results of theKelvin-Helmholtz instability.This instability leads to a spiralstructure formation in a jet. (see, for example,astro-ph/0103379). 3C 120 However, in the case of 3C 120 the blobs appearence is due toprocesses in the disc. Dips in X-rays (related to the disc) appear before blobs ejection (Marscher et al. 2002). (Marscher, A.P., et al., NATURE Vol 417 p. 625)

  10. Blazars If a jet is pointing towards us,then we see a blazar.

  11. Blazars at very high energies Bazars are powerful gamma-ray sources. The most powerful of them haveequivalent isotropic luminosity 1049erg/s. Collimationθ2/2 ~ 10-2 – 10-3. θ – jet opening angle. EGRETdetected 66 (+27) sources of this type.New breakthrough is expected after the launch ofGLAST. Several sources have been detected in the TeV range by ground-basedgamma-ray telescopes. All of them, except M87, are BL Lacs at z<0.2 (more percisely, to high-frequency-peaked BL Lac – HBL). Observations show that often (but not always)after a gamma-ray bursts few weeks or monthslater a burst happens also in the radio band. (seeastro-ph/0611521) GLAST

  12. Microquasars The correlation between X-ray andsynchrotron (i.e. between disc andjet emission) is observed. GRS 1915

  13. Microquasars jets in radio LS 5039/RX J1826.2-1450 –is a galactic massive X-ray binary. The jet length is ~1000 а.е. Probably, the source wasobserved by EGRET as3EG J1824-1514. (Many examples of VLBI radio jets from different sources can be found at the web-sitehttp://www.evlbi.org/gallery/images.html)

  14. The role of a donor An important difference between the microquasars case and AGNs is relatedto the existence of a donor-star. Especially, if it is a giant, then the star can inject matter and photons into the jet. (seeParedes astro-ph/0412057)

  15. Microquasars in gamma-rays: TeV range F. Aharonian et al.

  16. TeV emission fromCyg X-1 arxiv:0706.1505

  17. Jet models In all models jets are related to discs.Velocity at the base of a jet is about theparabolic (escape) velocity. (the table is fromastro-ph/0611521)

  18. Magnetic flux tubes in the vicinity of a BH (seegr-qc/0506078p. 20; the original paperastro-ph/0408371)

  20. Tidal disruption The Hills limit: 3 108solar masses. A BH disrupts stars. After a disruption in happens a burst with the temperature The maximum accretion rate This rate corresponds to the moment Then the rate can be described as For a BH with M<107 M0 the luminosity at maximum is: (astro-ph/0402497)

  21. A burst inNGC 5905 The decay was well described by the relation: Two other bursts discovered by ROSATand observed by HST and Chandra: RX J1624.9+7554 RX J1242.6-1119A (astro-ph/0402497)

  22. The burstRX J1242.6-1119A X-ray luminosityat maximum: ~1044erg/s The spectrum wasobtained by XMMin 2001, ie. nearly9 years afterthe burst. The luminosity was 4.5 1041erg/s,i.e.~200 timessmaller. (astro-ph/0402468)

  23. Lobster – the ideal tool to look for bursts after tidal disruptions This detector is an X-ray monitor which is planned to be installed on Spektr-RG(launch in ~2011). http://hea.iki.rssi.ru/SXG/YAMAL/Mission_Def_Doc_7_rus.htm#_Toc115696200

  24. Squeezars The rate offormation is lowerthan the rate oftidal disruptionevents, but the observable timeis longer. Graphs are plottedfor a solar-typestar orbitingthe BH in thecenter of our Galaxy. (astro-ph/0305061)

  25. Disc structure from microlensing Using the data on microlensingat wavelengths 0.4-8 micronsit was possible to derive the sizeof the disc in the quasar HE1104-1805 at different wavelengths. arXiv:0707.0003Shawn Poindexteret al. «The Spatial Structure of An Accretion Disk»

  26. Discs observed byVLTI The structure of the disc in Cen Awas studied in IR for scales <1 pc. The data is consistent with ageometrically thin discwith diameter 0.6 pc. arXiv:0707.0177K. Meisenheimer et al. «Resolving the innermost parsec of Centaurus A at mid-infrared wavelengths»

  29. Fluorescent lines The Кαiron line observed byASCA (1994 г.). Seyfert galaxyMCG-6-30-15 Dashed line: the model with non-rotating BH,disc inclination 30 degrees. (astro-ph/0212065)

  30. Lines and rotation of BHs XMM-Newton data (astro-ph/0206095) The fact that the lineextends to the red sidebelow 4 keV is interpreted as the signof rapid rotation(the disc extends inside 6Rg). (seeastro-ph/0212065)
