Scientific paper

High resolution imaging of HH objects associated with stellar jets allows us to investigate the interaction zone where the jet impacts the surrounding medium, the resulting shock structures that are formed, and the temporal behavior of the jet itself. We propose narrow band H Alpha and SII PC imaging of HH29, which is associated with the well studied L1551-IRS5 flow located at a distance of approximately 150 pc. HH29 is one of the closest HH objects that is bright enough for study with the PC, allowing us to investigate shock structures associated with the outflow from a forming star at the unprecedented scale of 7.5 AU. This will impact our understanding of interstellar jets, shocks, and jet driven outflow models.
