Astrophysical Jets : what can we learn from Solar Ejections?
read the original abstract
Ejections from the Sun can be observed with a higher resolution than in any other astrophysical object: can we build up on solar results and apply them to astrophysical objects? Aim of this work is to establish whether there is any analogy between solar ejections and ejections in microquasars and AGNs. Briefly reviewing jets properties from these objects and from the Sun, we point out some characteristics they share and indicate research areas where cross-breeeding between astrophysical and solar research is likely to be productive. Preliminary results of this study suggest, for instance, that there may be an analogy between blobs created by tearing instability in current sheets (CSs) associated with solar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and quasi periodic ejections of plasma associated with large radio outbursts in microquasars.
