24 Jet launching In GRBs we have 2 possibilities: - internal pressure: the huge optical depth traps photons inside - magnetic field In blazars: - internal pressure: the optical depth is small - magnetic field

25 Jet launching In GRBs we have 2 possibilities: - internal pressure: the huge optical depth traps photons inside - magnetic field In blazars: - internal pressure: the optical depth is small - magnetic field Magnetic field: - Produced and amplified by the disk - Link with accretion

32 Blazars and GRBs: a difference

33 Blazars: the redder the more powerful  cooling GRBs: the bluer the more powerful  heating??  ? “Amati” “Ghirlanda” E peak [keV] E [erg]

34 Conclusions Jets are the most efficient engine of Nature Compare jet power and L disk as a function of the accretion rate. Normalize to Eddington.
