Scientific paper

The authors discuss the general principles of mass addition to astrophysical flows via hydrodynamic mixing. They argue that in the absence of strong radiative cooling, a sustained one-dimensional mass-loaded flow will statistically mimic a steady flow of constant adiabatic Mach number about equal to unity. This proposition receives powerful support from observational data for the Wolf-Rayet wind-blown nebula RCW 58.
