Determining the Jet Poloidal B Field and Black-Hole Rotation Directions in AGNs
It is theoretically expected that active galactic nucleus (AGN) jets should carry helical magnetic (B) fields, which arise due to the rotation of the central black hole and accretion disk combined with the jet outflow. The direction of the toroidal component of the helical B field B φ is det...
