Scalar-tensor-vector gravity effects on relativistic jets of AGNs

We investigate the effects predicted by an alternative model of gravity on the shape and trajectory of relativistic plasma ejections from the central region of Active Galactic Nuclei. Specifically, we calculate the effects of gravitational Lorentz-like forces that arise in the context of Moffat’s Sc...

Sumario:We investigate the effects predicted by an alternative model of gravity on the shape and trajectory of relativistic plasma ejections from the central region of Active Galactic Nuclei. Specifically, we calculate the effects of gravitational Lorentz-like forces that arise in the context of Moffat’s Scalar-Tensor-Vector Gravity (STVG), produced by a supermassive black hole on a relativistic plasma blob.
