Classical and relativistic evolution of an extra-galactic jet with back-reaction
arXiv:1812.04972 · doi:10.3390/galaxies6040134
Abstract
We consider a turbulent jet which is moving in a Lane--Emden () medium. The conserved quantity is the energy flux, which allows finding, to first order, an analytical expression for the velocity and an approximate trajectory. The conservation of the relativistic flux for the energy allows deriving, to first order, an analytical expression for the velocity, and numerically determining the trajectory. The back-reaction due to the radiative losses for the trajectory is evaluated both in the classical and the relativistic case.
