Scientific paper

The study of the Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities in cylindrical boundary layer flows leads to a series of modes, one of which grows faster than the surrounding ones and becomes dominant. The author studies the relativistic effects on the e-folding length, the wavelength and the time-scale of the mode of this maximum instability. These deduced quantities could explain some observed parameters of astrophysical jets such as blobs, oscillations and typical lengths.
