Doppler factor of a minijet with a Lorentz factor γ = 5 moving in a jet of Lorentz factor Γ = 5 as a function of the misalignment between the jet and the line of sight θ, normalized to the opening angle of the jet 1/Γ. The maximum, average, and minimum Doppler factor are compared to the usual Doppler factor (solid line), derived for an isotropic emission in the jet frame (γ = 1).

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
