Abstract

Description

We analyse the radiation pressure instability of the standard, optically thisc disc and propose it as an explanation of the obseved variability of the superluminal microquasar GRS 1915+105. The quantitave agreement with the observed outburst amplitudes is obtained under the assumption that substantial part of the energy is carried away by the jet.
