How do astronomers explain the energetic jets that come out of quasars and active galactic nuclei in opposite directions

Respuesta :

Astronomers explain the energetic jets that come out of quasars and active galactic nuclei(AGN) in opposite directions in a way that the supermassive black holes' chaotic accretion discs "spit out" jets in directions perpendicular to the disc.

Quasar : A supermassive black hole with a mass between millions and tens of billions of solar masses that is fueled by an extraordinarily bright active galactic nucleus (AGN) and encircled by a gaseous accretion disc is known as a quasar.

An active galactic nucleus (AGN) is a compact area at the Centre of a galaxy that exhibits features that indicate the luminosity is not coming from stars and is substantially brighter than usual over at least some of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Hence, astronomers propose that the chaotic accretion discs of supermassive black holes "spit out" jets in directions perpendicular to the disc, explaining the intense jets that emerge from quasars and active galactic nuclei in different directions.
