  32. A global (and personal) view: Why are jets so stable • Initialexpansionphase: the jet generates a bow-shock and itissurroundedbymixed jet and ambient material. • Implicationswrtinstabilities. • Nonlinearprocesses can affect jet stability: • Reconfinement shocks. • Inhomogeneities in theambientmedium. • Changes at injection (perturbations). • Massloadingbystellarwinds and directinteractionwiththeambientmedium. • Jets are notstable!!!!

  33. A global (and personal) view: Why are jets so stable • BUT Somestabilizingmechanisms: • Certainconfigurations of themagneticfield (helicalfield). • Saturationduetorelativisticlimit. • Short λsaturation. • Resonantmodes. • Pressureconfinement (temporal). • Energy and momentum are conserved! • The jets thatwesee at thelargestscalescouldbetheresult of a series of non-linear processes, involvingstrongchanges in theircomposition.
