Jets from massive protostars might be very different from lower-mass systems: VLA reveals new details of protostellar jet – Science Daily
A highly-detailed VLA image indicates that the jets of material propelled outward by young stars much more massive than the Sun may be very different from those…

Astronomers studying the fast-moving jet of material ejected by a still-forming, massive young star found a major difference between that jet and those ejected by less-massive young stars. The scientists made the discovery by using the U.S. National Science Foundation’s Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to make the most detailed image yet of the inner region of such a jet coming from a massive young star.Both low- and high-mass young stars, or protostars, propel jets outward perpendicular to…
