Decelerating relativistic radio jets in B2 0755+379
ASTR SOC P 250 (2002) 276-280
Abstract:
We apply a model for an adiabatically expanding relativistic jet to the radio galaxy B2 0755+379 using the observed surface brightness and jet width obtained from VLA and MERLIN radio images. We derive velocity profiles along the main jet for various assumed starting conditions, and show that these profiles axe consistent with the observed jet/counter-jet brightness ratio provided that the angle to the line of sight of the jet is theta similar or equal to 27degrees and the starting velocity of the jet (actually. the velocity at 0.5 kpc from the nucleus) is similar or equal to 0.9c.Deep optical imaging of the field of PC 1643+4631A&B - II.

Deflection of jets induced by jet-cloud interactions
ASTR SOC P 250 (2002) 462-466
Abstract:
Non-relativistic and relativistic models in which astrophysical jets are deflected on passing through an isothermal high density region are analysed. The criteria for the stability of jets to be affected by the formation of internal shocks are discussed.Detecting the Progenitors of Core Collapse Supernovae
