A Possible Hydrodynamical Equivalence for Astrophysical Jets. (2005). Revista Mexicana De Astronomía Y Astrofísica, 41(2), 453-459. https://astronomia.unam.mx/journals/rmxaa/article/view/2005rmxaa..41..453m
Abstract
The idea of a unified model for quasars and μ-quasars has been considered for a long time, despite the different environments and physical conditions where both classes of objects reside. Here we show the existence of a simple scaling law, relating the maximum size of a jet to the properties of the gas medium into which it expands. This appears to be valid for all types of hydrodynamical jets, and can be thought of as a broad unified model. The expansion velocity of the jet and the physical properties of the surrounding gas combine in such a way that a limit to the maximum extent of jets at different scales can be obtained.Similar Articles
