Open publisher page 4 citations

Abstract

Based on recently reported results, we present arguments that sign changes in proper acceleration of test particles on the symmetry axis and close to the r = 2M surface of quasi-spherical objects- related to the quadrupole moment of the source- might be at the origin of relativistic jets of quasars and micro-quasars.
