To investigate the differences in mechanical feedback from radio-loud and radio-quiet Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) on the host galaxy, we perform 3D AMR hydrodynamic simulations of wide angle, radio-quiet winds with different inclinations…

Stellar jets are normally constituted by chains of knots with some periodicity in their spatial distribution, corresponding to a variability of order of several years in the ejection from the protostar/disk system. A widely accepted theory…

We consider the formation and evolution of vortices in a hydrodynamic shearing-sheet model. The evolution is done numerically using a version of the ZEUS code. Consistent with earlier results, an injected vorticity field evolves into a set…

Elongated jets from young stellar objects typically present a nodular structure, formed by a chain of bright knots of enhanced emission with individual proper motions. Though it is generally accepted that internal shocks play an important…

Coherent structures in aspect ratio 2, axis-switching elliptical jets are studied using direct numerical simulation (DNS). Three different datasets are studied with varying near-nozzle forcing levels. Increasing the forcing level causes the…

The rotational evolution of a strongly magnetized neutron star (NS), accreting or isolated, is driven by external torques of different nature. In addition to the torques, even the tiniest deformations of the NS crust can affect its rotation…

Fast highly-collimated outflows including bipolar knots, jet-like features, and point-symmetric filaments or string of knots are common in planetary nebulae (PNe). These features, generally named as jets, are thought to play an active role…

We conduct numerical simulations of axisymmetrical jets expanding into a spherical AGB slow wind. The three-dimensional flow is simulated with an axially symmetric numerical code. We concentrate on jets that are active for a relatively…

Relativistic jets from (supermassive) black holes are typically observed in non-thermal emission, caused by highly-relativistic electrons. Here, we study the interrelation between three-dimensional (special) relativistic…

We report on singular jets in a free-falling liquid tin droplet following nanosecond laser-pulse impact. Following impact, the droplet (with diameter $D_0=50$ or 70\,$\mu$m) undergoes rapid radial expansion and subsequent retraction,…

Ring vortices are efficient at transporting fluid. They are often produced by ejecting a volume of fluid through a circular orifice. The impulse given to the vortex rings results in a propulsive force on the generator. Propulsive vortex…
