Scientific paper

The so called Poynting-Robertson Cosmic Battery (PRCB) explains in a natural way the formation of magnetic fields in the accretion disks of AGN and X-ray binaries. These magnetic fields result in jet emission from these sources. It will be demonstrated that the PRCB can explain naturally all the observed phenomenology of jet formation and destruction in X-ray binaries. In particular, it will be explained why a jet is present when the sources are in the hard spectral state but not in the soft one.
