We analyze the interaction of a radiation-dominated jet and its surroundings using the equations of radiation hydrodynamics in the viscous limit. In a previous paper we considered the two-stream scenario, which treats the jet and its…
Relativistic jets associated with active galactic nuclei and gamma-ray bursts propagate over huge distances without significant loss of momentum. At the same time they are bright emitters, which is indicative of strong energy dissipation.…
Particle acceleration in relativistic jets to very high energies occurs at the expense of the dissipation of magnetic or kinetic energy. Therefore, understanding the processes that can trigger this dissipation is key to the characterization…
A broadened or double humped away-side structure was observed in 2-particle azimuthal jet-like correlations at RHIC and SPS. This modification can be explained by conical emission, from either Mach-cone shock waves or Cherenkov gluon…
We study the effect a guiding magnetic field has on the formation and structure of a pair jet that propagates through a collisionless electron-proton plasma at rest. We model with a PIC simulation a pair cloud with the temperature 400 keV…
If a body of inviscid fluid is disturbed, it will typically eject a jet of fluid. If the effects of gravity and surface tension are negligible, these jets travel in straight lines, with the tips approaching a constant velocity. It has been…
Liquid jet formations on water surfaces serve as a cornerstone in diverse scientific disciplines, underpinning processes in climatology, environmental science, and human health issues. Traditional models predominantly focus on pristine…
Astrophysical jets are often observed as bent or curved structures. We also know that the different jet sources may be binary in nature, which may lead to a regular, periodic motion of the jet nozzle, an orbital motion or precession. Here,…
We present a large systematic study of hydrodynamic simulations of supersonic adiabatic jets in three dimensions to provide a definitive set of results on exploring jet density, Mach number and precession angle as variables. We restrict the…
Jets are multi-partonic systems that develop before interactions with the quark-gluon plasma set in and lead to energy loss and modifications of their substructure. Jet modification depends on the degree to which the medium can resolve the…
We study Mach shocks generated by fast partonic jets propagating through a deconfined strongly-interacting matter. Our main goal is to take into account different types of collective motion during the formation and evolution of this matter.…
Accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) frequently power jets that interact with the interstellar/circumgalactic medium (ISM/CGM), regulating star-formation in the galaxy. Highly supersonic jets launched by active galactic nuclei (AGN)…
A formalism to study the mode-by-mode response to the energy deposition of external hard partons propagating in a relativistic fluid is developed, based on a semi-analytical solution of conformal fluid-dynamics. The soft particle production…
We present the results of a numerical analysis of the propagation and interaction of a supersonic jet with the external medium. We discuss the motion of the head of the jet into the ambient in different physical conditions, carrying out…
We constructed hydrodynamical model atmospheres for mid M-type main-, as well as pre-main-sequence objects. Despite the complex chemistry encountered in such cool atmospheres a reasonably accurate representation of the radiative transfer is…
The death of massive stars produces central accreting compact objects and sometimes relativistic jets. Not all jets escape the stellar envelope: unsuccessful, or choked, jets dissipate their energy into a pressurized cocoon, which expands…
This study concerns a turbulent jet at Mach number $M_j=0.9$, subject to a uniform external flow stream at $M_f=0.15$. We assess the mechanisms that underpin the reduction in fluctuation energy that is known to occur when a jet is…
We investigate the evolution of a disk wind into a collimated jet under the influence of magnetic diffusivity, assuming that the turbulent pattern in the disk will also enter the disk corona and the jet. Using the ZEUS-3D code in the…
Context. Astrophysical jets are ubiquitous in the Universe on all scales, but their large-scale dynamics and evolution in time are hard to observe since they usually develop at a very slow pace. Aims. We aim to obtain the first…
A detailed experimental and theoretical study has been performed about a phenomenon, not previously reported in the literature, occurring in highly viscous liquids: the formation of a definite pipe structure induced by the passage of a…
