Modelling the Origin of Astrophysical Jets from Galactic and Extra-galactic Sources: A New Approach to Combine the Accretion-Wind Topologies

. Though widely observed to be emanating out from a variety of galactic and extra-galactic sources, the underlying physical mechanism behind the formation of the cosmic jets and outflows are wrapped around by the veil of mystery till date. Neither the amount of matter contained in these jets could accurately be calculated by any definitive method. In this paper we present a theoretical model, which, for the first time we believe, is able to explain the jet formation phenomenon as well as can compute the mass outflow rate by self-consistently combining the exact transonic accretion-outflow topologies. Our model could also analyze the dependence of this rate on various physical parameters governing the inflow. Key words: AGN -- quasars -- jets -- accretion, accretion discs -- black hole physics -- shock-waves -- hydrodynamics -- outflow -- wind Prologue Astrophysical jets are physical conduits along which mass, momentum, energy and magnetic flux are channelled from the stellar, galacti..
