Relativistic jets in narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies. New discoveries and open questions
Before the launch of the Fermi satellite only two classes of AGNs were known to produce relativistic jets and thus emit up to the γ-ray energy range: blazars and radio galaxies, both hosted in giant elliptical galaxies.

Heat transfer from swirling impinging jets [PDF]
This thesis is concerned with the determination of the local and average mass/heat transfer--from swirling jets impinging orthogonally onto flat surfaces.

The relativistic Jet in M84 [PDF]
The elliptical galaxy M84 (NGC 4374, UGC 07494) hosts an FR-I radio continuum source (Laing & Bridle 1987, MNRAS, 228, 557) and a dusty, warped optical emission line “disk” (Baumet al.1988, ApJS, 68, 643; Goudfrooijet al.1994, A&ApS, 105, 341).

Calibrating The Power Of Relativistic Jets [PDF]
There are several methods to calculate the radiative and kinetic power of relativistic jets, but their results can differ by one or two orders of magnitude. Therefore, it is necessary to perform a calibration of the jet power, to understand the reasons for these differences (whether wrong hypotheses or intrinsic source variability), and if it is ...

Simulations of relativistic extragalactic jets [PDF]
We describe a method for the numerical solution of the relativistic Euler equations which we have found to be both robust and efficient, and which has enabled us to simulate relativistic jets. The technique employs a solver of the Godunov-type, with approximate solution of the local Riemann problems, applied to laboratory frame variables.

Relativistic Jets from Collapsars [PDF]
Using a collapsar progenitor model of MacFadyen & Woosley we have simulated the propagation of an axisymmetric jet through a collapsing rotating massive star with the GENESIS multi-dimensional relativistic hydrodynamic code. The jet forms as a consequence of an assumed (constant or variable) energy deposition in the range $10^{50}$ erg s$^{-1}$ to $

Shock dynamics in relativistic jets [PDF]
We present a formalism of the dynamics of internal shocks in relativistic jets where the source has a time-dependent injection velocity and mass-loss rate. The variation of the injection velocity produces a two-shock wave structure, the working surface, that moves along the jet.

Letter to Nature: An ultra-relativistic outflow from a neutron star accreting gas from a companion. [PDF]
Collimated relativistic outflows—also known as jets—are amongst the most energetic phenomena in the Universe. They are associated with supermassive black holes in distant active galactic nuclei1, accreting stellar-mass black holes and neutron stars in ...
