Magnetically driven superluminal motion from rotating black holes
Magnetically driven superluminal motion from rotating black holes
We have investigated magnetically driven superluminal jets originating from rotating black holes. The stationary, general relativistic, magnetohydrodynamic wind equation along collimating magnetic flux surfaces has been solved numerically. In particular, we apply our results to the Galactic superluminal sources GRS 1915+105 and GRO 1655-40. Our results show that the observed …
