jet
jet A narrow, bright feature associated with several types of astronomical object. Jets are seen mainly at radio but occasionally at other wavelengths. They emerge from the core of certain active galaxies and may extend for many hundreds of kiloparsecs. In some sources, notably
radio galaxies, jets are commonly seen on both sides of the nucleus (
double-sided jet) while in others, such as quasars, only one jet is normally seen (
single-sided jet). Some jets exhibit the phenomenon of
superluminal velocity. Optical stellar jets are seen emerging from young stars such as
T Tauri stars and
FU Orionis stars, and are associated with
Herbig–Haro objects. The X-ray binary system
SS433 has two jets.
