Scientific paper

An inelastic collision model is proposed as a plausible mechanism for the production of optical emitting electrons seen in some large scale jets. The target proton density is shown to be readily available through the entrainment of thermal gas as the jets interact and share their momentum with their environment. The optical flux densities predicted by the model for some typical optical jets are in reasonable agreement with the observed values. The model also predicts a relativistic proton flux from the galactic center with spectral index, Γ<=2.0.
