Abstract

I report about the unification of relativistic jets from compact objects. The mass range is between 1.4 and 10 billion solar masses (i.e. from neutron stars to supermassive black holes in galaxies).

Highlights

  • In the case of Galactic binaries, a second branch emerged in the radio-X-ray correlation,[15,16,17] which seems to be due to high-efficiency jets from accreting neutron stars.[18]

  • The Unification of Relativistic Jets rays emitted by radio-loud Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies (RLNLS1s).[29,30,31,32]

  • This discovery has confirmed the presence of powerful relativistic jets in such class of AGN suggested by radio observations and opened several interesting questions

Summary

Introduction

In the case of Galactic binaries, a second branch emerged in the radio-X-ray correlation,[15,16,17] which seems to be due to high-efficiency jets from accreting neutron stars.[18] The fundamental plane supporters continue believing in the reliability of their work and, from time to time, they revise and update their samples I think that it is better to tackle the problem by means of a more physical approach, based on derived measures of physical quantities, such as the jet power or the accretion disk luminosity.[22,23,24] Instead of blindly measure the electromagnetic emission in one energy band and puzzling over the possible contributors and biases, it is better to derive immediately the interested quantities and search for correlations as indicated by the same theory (e.g. Ref. 25).
