The Composition and Power of the Jet of the Broad-line Radio Galaxy 3C 120
We calculated the electron-positron pair-production rate at the base of the jet of 3C 120 due to collisions of photons from the hot accretion flow using the measurement of its average soft gamma-ray spectrum by the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. We found that this rate approximately equals the flow...
