I.1 Sources of <strong>Jets</strong> Microquasars ● binary star system consisting of a massive normal star and a black hole bzw neutron star ● timescale proportional to M > evolution of the jets within days (quasars take years) ● jet velocity V escape ≃V jet ≃0.6c artists view of a microquasar
I.1 Sources of <strong>Jets</strong> Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB) ● flashes of gamma ray emitted by heavy stars that collapse ● lifetime ~ s ● followed by a longerlived afterglow ● most luminous events in the sky ● jet velocity V escape ≃V jet ≃c ; ~100
