Scientific paper

Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities in extragalactic radio jets are considered. It is shown that instabilities can be analyzed within the framework of a dispersion relation for a cylindrical jet configuration. The dependence of the instability growth rate on the Mach number, density contrast, and Lorentz number of the radio jet is determined based on the dispersion relation.
