Braking down an accreting protostar: disc-locking, disc winds, stellar winds, X-winds and Magnetospheric Ejecta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Classical T Tauri stars are low mass young forming stars that are surrounded by a circumstellar accretion disc from which they gain mass. Despite this accretion and their own contraction that should both lead to their spin up, these stars seem to ...

Theory of Stellar and Extragalactic Jets [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1986
AbstractDifferent types of astrophysical jets are briefly described and the wide differences in their observed properties are emphasized. Various physical mechanisms that have been proposed for creating jets, based on gas dynamical, magnetic, and radiative stresses are briefly reviewed. It is argued that magnetic fields are probably generally important

Diagnostics of inhomogeneous stellar jets [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2008
CONTEXT: In the interpretation of stellar jet observations, the physical parameters are usually determined from emission line ratios, obtained from spectroscopic observations or using the information contained in narrow band images. The basic hypothesis in the interpretation of the observations is that the emitting region is homogeneous along the line ...

Supernova Hosts for Gamma-Ray Burst Jets: Dynamical Constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
I constrain a possible supernova origin for gamma-ray bursts by modeling the dynamical interaction between a relativistic jet and a stellar envelope surrounding it.

Numerical simulations of stellar jets and comparison between synthetic and observed maps: clues to the launch mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
High angular resolution spectra obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (HST/STIS) provide rich morphological and kinematical information about the stellar jet phenomenon, which allows us to test theoretical models efficiently.

Steady, partially ionized stellar jets

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1990
Un modele de jet stellaire stationnaire a symetrie cylindrique non-adiabatique de nombre de Mach eleve, qui inclut les effets de l'ionisation hors-equilibre et du refroidissement, est developpe. Les caracteristiques generales de ces jets sont decrites et leurs implications pour l'interpretation des jets observes analysees.

Hypersonic jets in astrophysical conditions: focus on spreading and asymmetric stability properties

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
High Mach number jets emanating from young stars show remarkable collimation, low opening angle and resilience against the growth of instabilities, especially the asymmetric ones. In recent laboratory experiments instances of asymmetric three-dimensional

Bubbles in Planetary Nebulae and Clusters of Galaxies: Jet Bending

open access: yes, 2006
We study the bending of jets in binary stellar systems. A compact companion accretes mass from the slow wind of the mass-losing primary star, forms an accretion disk, and blows two opposite jets. These fast jets are bent by the slow wind.

Two-component jet simulations: II. Combining analytical disk and stellar MHD outflow solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Theoretical arguments along with observational data of YSO jets suggest the presence of two steady components: a disk wind type outflow needed to explain the observed high mass loss rates and a stellar wind type outflow probably accounting for the ...

Collective non-thermal emission from an extragalactic jet interacting with stars

open access: yes, 2017
The central regions of galaxies are complex environments, rich in evolved and/or massive stars. For galaxies hosting an active galactic nucleus (AGN) with jets, the interaction of the jets with the winds of the stars within can lead to particle ...
