The physics of turbulent and dynamically unstable Herbig–Haro jets
نویسنده
چکیده
The overall properties of the Herbig–Haro objects such as centerline velocity, transversal profile of velocity, flow of mass, and flow of energy are explained adopting two models for the turbulent jet. The complex shapes of the Herbig–Haro objects, such as the arc in HH34, can be explained by introducing the combination of different kinematic effects such as velocity behavior along the main direction of the jet and the velocity of the star in the interstellar medium. The behavior of the intensity or brightness of the line of emission is explored in three different cases: transversal one-dimensional (1D) cut, longitudinal 1D cut, and 2D map. An analytical explanation for the enhancement in intensity or brightness such as usually modeled by the bow shock is given by a careful analysis of the geometrical properties of the torus.

Highly Collimated Molecular Hydrogen Jets Near IRAS 05487+0255: NIR Imaging and Spectroscopy
We present new narrow-band near-infrared images together with K band spectra of highly collimated bipolar jets close to the IRAS 05487+0255 source. The jets are located at ∼ 50 West of the Herbig-Haro 110 outflow. The jets are not visible at optical wavelengths, and therefore, do not fall into the ‘standard’ Herbig-Haro object classification scheme. Nevertheless, they belong to an ever growing ...
متن کاملConstraining the Parameters of AGN Jets Comparisons with Herbig-Haro Jets
Comparing the properties AGN and Herbig-Haro jets can be a useful exercise for understanding the physical mechanisms at work in collimated outflows that propagate in such different environments. In the case of Herbig-Haro jets, the presence of emission lines in the spectra and the continuous evolution of the observation techniques greatly favor our knowledge of the physical parameters of the je...
متن کاملThe dynamics of internal working surfaces in MHD jets
The dynamical effects of magnetic fields in models of radiative, Herbig-Haro (HH) jets have been studied in a number of papers. For example, magnetized, radiative jets from variable sources have been studied with axisymmetric and 3D numerical simulations. In this paper, we present an analytic model describing the effect of a toroidal magnetic field on the internal working surfaces that result f...
متن کاملDiscovery of new embedded Herbig - Haro objects in the ρ Ophiuchi dark cloud ⋆
We report here the discovery of a 30 ′′-chain of embedded Herbig-Haro (HH) objects in the ρ Ophiuchi dark cloud. These HH objects were first detected during a deep KS-band observation (completeness magnitude for point source∼19) made with NTT/SOFI. We confirm their nature with follow-up observations made with H2 v=1–0 S(1) narrow-band filter. We argue that they belong to two different jets eman...
