Binary star systems containing stellar mass black holes and normal stars as companions have been detected in our Galaxy over the last decade. Ejecting collimated bipolar radio jets with apparent superluminal velocities, these objects have been named microquasars thanks to their similarity with the distant extragalactic quasars [1]. We here propose that the large scale superluminal ejections observed in these microquasars (e.g., GRS 1915+105 source) during radio flare events are produced by violent magnetic reconnection episodes in the corona just above the inner regions of the magnetized accretion disk (with B ≃ 107 G) that surrounds the central 10-solar mass black hole.
