Scientific paper

Models of nonadiabatic, high Mach number, cylindrically symmetric, steady stellar jets have been computed. In these calculations, the effects of the nonequilibrium ionization and cooling have been taken into consideration. An extensive study of parameter space (limited to initially overpressured jets) provides a qualitative picture of the different characteristics possible for stellar jets. In particular, it is found that, for parameters typical of stellar jets, the internal jet shocks produce only a low degree of ionization. This result qualitatively agrees with observations of stellar jets, which typically show a low excitation spectrum.
