Relativistic beaming (also known as Doppler beaming, Doppler boosting, or the headlight effect) is the process by which relativistic effects modify the apparent luminosity of emitting matter that is moving at speeds close to the speed of light. In an astronomical context, relativistic beaming commonly occurs in two oppositely-directed relativistic jets of plasma that originate from a central compact object that is accreting matter. Accreting compact objects and relativistic jets are invoked to explain the following observed phenomena: x-ray binaries, gamma-ray bursts, and, on a much larger scale, active galactic nuclei (AGN). (Quasars are also associated with an accreting compact object, but are thought to be merely a particular variety of AGN.)
Beaming affects the apparent brightness of a moving object just as a lighthouse affects the appearance of its light source: the light appears dim or unseen to a ship except when the rotating beacon is directed towards it, when it then appears bright. This so-called lighthouse effect illustrates how important the direction of motion relative to the observer is. Consider a cloud of gas moving relative to the observer and emitting electromagnetic radiation. If the gas is moving towards the observer it will be brighter than if it were at rest, but if moving away it will appear fainter. The magnitude of the effect is illustrated by the AGN jets of the galaxies M87 and 3C 319 (see images at right). M87 has twin jets aimed almost directly towards and away from Earth; the jet moving towards Earth is clearly visible (the long, thin blueish feature in the top image), while the other jet is so much fainter it is not visible.[1] In 3C 319, both jets (labeled in the lower figure) are at roughly right angles to our line of sight and thus, both are visible. The upper jet is actually pointing slightly more in Earth's direction and is therefore brighter.[2]
Relativistically moving objects are beamed due to a variety of physical effects. Light aberration causes most of the photons to be emitted along the object's direction of motion. The Doppler effect changes the energy of the photons by red- or blueshifting them. Finally, time intervals as measured by clocks moving alongside the emitting object are different from those measured by an observer on Earth due to time dilation and photon arrival time effects. How all of these effects modify the brightness, or apparent luminosity, of a moving object is determined by the equation describing the relativistic Doppler effect (which is why relativistic beaming is also known as Doppler beaming).
A simple jet model[edit]
The simplest model for a jet is one where a single, homogeneous sphere is travelling towards the Earth at nearly the speed of light. This simple model is also an unrealistic one, but it does illustrate the physical process of beaming quite well.
Synchrotron spectrum and the spectral index[edit]
Relativistic jets emit most of their energy via synchrotron emission. In our simple model the sphere contains highly relativistic electrons and a steady magnetic field. Electrons inside the blob travel at speeds just a tiny fraction below the speed of light and are whipped around by the magnetic field. Each change in direction by an electron is accompanied by the release of energy in the form of a photon. With enough electrons and a powerful enough magnetic field the relativistic sphere can emit a huge number of photons, ranging from those at relatively weak radio frequencies to powerful X-ray photons.
The figure of the sample spectrum shows basic features of a simple synchrotron spectrum. At low frequencies the jet sphere is opaque and its luminosity increases with frequency until it peaks and begins to decline. In the sample image this peak frequency occurs at . At frequencies higher than this the jet sphere is transparent. The luminosity decreases with frequency until a break frequency is reached, after which it declines more rapidly. In the same image the break frequency occurs when . The sharp break frequency occurs because at very high frequencies the electrons which emit the photons lose most of their energy very rapidly. A sharp decrease in the number of high energy electrons means a sharp decrease in the spectrum.
The changes in slope in the synchrotron spectrum are parameterized with a spectral index. The spectral index, α, over a given frequency range is simply the slope on a diagram of vs. . (Of course for α to have real meaning the spectrum must be very nearly a straight line across the range in question.)
Beaming equation[edit]
In the simple jet model of a single homogeneous sphere the observed luminosity is related to the intrinsic luminosity as
where
The observed luminosity therefore depends on the speed of the jet and the angle to the line of sight through the Doppler factor, , and also on the properties inside the jet, as shown by the exponent with the spectral index.
The beaming equation can be broken down into a series of three effects:
- Relativistic aberration
- Time dilation
- Blue- or redshifting
Aberration[edit]
Aberration is the change in an object's apparent direction caused by the relative transverse motion of the observer. In inertial systems it is equal and opposite to the light time correction.
In everyday life aberration is a well-known phenomenon. Consider a person standing in the rain on a day when there is no wind. If the person is standing still, then the rain drops will follow a path that is straight down to the ground. However, if the person is moving, for example in a car, the rain will appear to be approaching at an angle. This apparent change in the direction of the incoming raindrops is aberration.
The amount of aberration depends on the speed of the emitted object or wave relative to the observer. In the example above this would be the speed of a car compared to the speed of the falling rain. This does not change when the object is moving at a speed close to . Like the classic and relativistic effects, aberration depends on: 1) the speed of the emitter at the time of emission, and 2) the speed of the observer at the time of absorption.
In the case of a relativistic jet, beaming (emission aberration) will make it appear as if more energy is sent forward, along the direction the jet is traveling. In the simple jet model a homogeneous sphere will emit energy equally in all directions in the rest frame of the sphere. In the rest frame of Earth the moving sphere will be observed to be emitting most of its energy along its direction of motion. The energy, therefore, is ‘beamed’ along that direction.

Time dilation[edit]
Time dilation is a well-known consequence of special relativity and accounts for a change in observed luminosity of
Blue- or redshifting[edit]
Blue- or redshifting can change the observed luminosity at a particular frequency, but this is not a beaming effect.
Blueshifting accounts for a change in observed luminosity of
Lorentz invariants[edit]
A more-sophisticated method of deriving the beaming equations starts with the quantity . This quantity is a Lorentz invariant, so the value is the same in different reference frames.
Terminology[edit]

- the ratio of the jet speed to the speed of light, sometimes called ‘relativistic beta’
- core
- region of a galaxy around the central black hole
- counter-jet
- the jet on the far side of a source oriented close to the line of sight, can be very faint and difficult to observe
- Doppler factor
- a mathematical expression which measures the strength (or weakness) of relativistic effects in AGN, including beaming, based on the jet speed and its angle to the line of sight with Earth
- flat spectrum
- a term for a non-thermal spectrum that emits a great deal of energy at the higher frequencies when compared to the lower frequencies
- intrinsic luminosity
- the luminosity from the jet in the rest frame of the jet
- jet (often termed 'relativistic jet')
- a high velocity (close to c) stream of plasma emanating from the polar direction of an AGN
- observed luminosity
- the luminosity from the jet in the rest frame of Earth
- spectral index
- a measure of how a non-thermal spectrum changes with frequency. The smaller α is, the more significant the energy at higher frequencies is. Typically α is in the range of 0 to 2.
