On the matter entrainment by stellar jets and the acceleration of molecular outflows
M. Micono, G. Bodo, S. Massaglia +2
We study, by numerical simulations, the entrainment process in a supersonic, radiative jet flow, during the evolution of Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities, in the context of the the a…

Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in three dimensional radiative jets
M. Micono, G. Bodo, S. Massaglia +3
The analysis of the stability properties of astrophysical jets against Kelvin-Helmholtz (or shear-layer) instabilities plays a basic role in the understanding the origin and physic…

Diffusive shock acceleration in extragalactic jets
M. Micono, N. Zurlo, S. Massaglia +2
We calculate the temporal evolution of distributions of relativistic electrons subject to synchrotron and adiabatic processes and Fermi-like acceleration in shocks. The shocks resu…
