在这篇文章中，我们展示了一组简单的关系，将快速等离子体喷流的动力学与其周围介质的动力学状态联系起来。其目的是提供一个工具包，可用于将星系团中射电活动星系核(AGN)的形态与局域星系团内介质(ICM)的动力学状态联系起来。这种形式主义意在适用于相对论或非相对论喷流。对涉及ICM冲击的相互作用给予了特别关注，尽管结果可以更广泛地应用。我们的形式强调了撞击ICM流的相对马赫数和活动星系核喷流的内部马赫数在决定活动星系核外流如何演化中的重要性。
In this paper, we lay out a simple set of relationships connecting the dynamics of fast plasma jets to the dynamical state of their ambient media. The objective is to provide a tool kit that can be used to connect the morphologies of radio active galactic nuclei (AGNs) in galaxy clusters to the dynamical state of the local intracluster medium (ICM). The formalism is intended to apply to either relativistic or non-relativistic jets. Special attention is paid to interactions involving ICM shocks, although the results can be applied more broadly. Our formalism emphasizes the importance of the relative Mach number of the impacting ICM flow and the internal Mach number of the AGN jet in determining how the AGN outflows evolve.
