The local linearized dispersion relation for perturbations to the surface of a constantly adiabatic jet, which is assumed to be in static pressure balance with an isothermal confining medium, is derived in an investigation of the effect of adiabatic expansion on the propagation and temporal growth of helical twisting in a supersonic jet. Cooling of the jet material along such a flow increases Mach number and relative density relative to the confining medium, as distance from the origin increases; this leads to a rather rapid decrease in the maximum rate of growth and an increase in the maximally unstable wavelength, relative to the jet's radius, as the distance along such a jet increases. Attention is given to the consequences of assuming that a change in the phase velocity of a propagating helical wave along a jet causes the wavelength of a helical wave to change.
