Binary evolution with relativistic jets

Abstract

Relativistic jets can extract mass-energy from a black hole. In semi-detached black hole binaries the jet ejection process constitutes a `consequential angular momentum loss' (CAML) process. The effect of this jet-induced CAML is to lower the transfer rate below the value set by systemic driving and to stabilize otherwise unstable systems. Implications of jet-induced CAML for GRO J1655-40 are discussed.
