This book reviews the phenomenology displayed by relativistic jets as well as the most recent theoretical efforts to understand the physical mechanisms at their origin. Relativistic jets have been observed and studied in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) for about half a century and are believed to be fueled by accretion onto a supermassive black hole at the center of the host galaxy. Since the first discovery of relativistic jets associated with so-called "micro-quasars" much more recently, it has seemed clear that much of the physics governing the relativistic outflows in stellar X-ray binaries harboring black holes and in AGN must be common, but acting on very different spatial and temporal scales. With new observational and theoretical results piling up every day, this book attempts to synthesize a consistent, unified physical picture of the formation and disruption of jets in accreting black-hole systems. The chapters in this book offer overviews accessible not only to specialists but also to graduate students and astrophysicists working in other areas. Covered topics comprise Relativistic jets in stellar systems Launching of AGN jets Parsec-scale AGN jets Kiloparsec-scale AGN jets Black hole magnetospheres Theory of relativistic jets The structure and dynamics of the inner accretion disk The origin of the jet magnetic field X-ray observations, phenomenology, and connection with theory

Annotation Papers from a June 2000 meeting discuss multiwavelength monitoring methods for studying active galactic nuclei, the potential of dedicated facilities for multiwavelength monitoring, and future multiwavelength programs. Some topics discussed are multiwavelength observations of blazars, time delays of blazar flares observed at different wavebands, low radiative-efficiency accretion flows, spectrochronography, and variability of the intrinsic UV absorption lines in Seyfert galaxies. Other topics are the variable diffuse continuum emission of broad-line clouds, the MIDEX concept, and the mission. Peterson teaches astronomy at The Ohio State University. This volume lacks a subject index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
