内容記述 Optical jets and molecular bipolar outflows are two major manifestations<br />of outflowing activities associated with young stellar objects (YSOs).It is<br />not clear how these two outflow activities are related with each other.One of<br />the major scenarios is that a collimated jet seen in the optical-IR wavelength<br />entrains its ambient molecular material,a1lowing the molecular outflow to<br />occur. In order for us to tackle this issue,it is crucial to understand how jets<br />interact with ambient material.<br /> In addition to the kinematics,the mass loss rate and mass momentum<br />transfer rate of are key parameters to investigate how the jet interacts<br />with the ambient material. However,the mass momentum is poorly known<br />because the hydrogen density is not easily derived, as is different from the<br />electron density that is measured from forbidden line emissions. If we assume<br />that a jet is fully ionized, i.e. the electron density is nearly equal to the<br />hydrogen density,the mass momentum of the jet derived from its optical<br />emission lines is not sufficient to drive the molecular outflow associated with<br />it. In contrast,recent studies have suggested that jets are almost neutral,<br />indicating that a jet may have momentum sufficient to drive a molecular outflow.<br />  In order to study the issues described above,we made slit-scan observa-<br />tions of Hα and [NII] 6583 &Aring; emission lines toward two bright jets,HH46/47<br />and the HL Tau jet,with Subaru Telescope. The large diameter of the tele-<br />scope,together with the high spectral resolution of the spectrograph(High<br />Dispersion Spectrograph,R =3.6×10<sup>40</sup> or &Delta;v=8km s<sup>-1</sup>)allowed us to<br />study the kinematics of these jets in unprecedented detail.Furthermore,the<br />slit-scan technique with a long slit provided us with kinematic information<br />of the entire jets.<br />  We found that,in both jets,the Hα emission traces both the main jet<br />component(<i>V</i><small>LSR</small>=-160~-180km s<sup>-1</sup>)and distinct lower velocity com-<br />ponent (|<i>V</i><small>LSR</small>| &le; 120km s<sup>-1</sup>). The [NII] emission, on the other hand,is<br />primarily associated with the main jet component and is much faint or ab-<br />sent in the lower velocity component.  In the HH 46/47 jet,the velocities<br />of Hαand [NII] emission lines match well in their main jet components.<br />The lower velocity components are associated with one-sided bow shocks<br />and with one of the Hα filaments that was previous identified with the<br /><i>Hubble Space Telescope.</i> In the HL Tau jet,the lower velocity component<br />is associated with indivisual knots, which is explained by the lower velocity<br />emmituion arising in the laterals of bow shocks. While the main jet component<br />is associated with the ejecta, the lower velocity component is produced as a<br />result of the interaction between the ejecta and the surrounding gas.<br />  Observed Hα line profiles suggest that the shock velocities at the bow<br />shocks and the Hα filament with respect to the ambient gas are 60-80km s<sup>-1</sup><br />and 120-130 km s<sup>-1</sup> for HH46/47 and HL Tau,respectively. These are<br />markedly smaller than the three dimensional(3-D)velocities of the jets(~300<br />km s<sup>-1</sup>).  The discrepancy between the shock velocity and 3-D velocity is<br />explained if the ambient gas moves outward by~200km s<sup>-1.</sup>. The velocity<br />of the ambient gas measured in the HH46/47 jet is similar to those of HH<br />47A and 47D,giant bow shocks ahead of the observed region.<br />  Through detailed analysis,we concluded that the outward motion of the<br /> ambient gas is a result of prompt entrainment,i.e. a jet sweeps up ambient<br />material at its head by a large bow shock,but not of turbulent entrainment,<br />the other entrainment mechanism proposed to date.Indeed,our high spec-<br />tral resolution slit-scan observations of Hαshow that the main jet component<br />has a uniform radial velocity of <i>V</i><small>LSR</small>=-160km s<sup>-1</sup>(&Delta;v=10km s<sup>-1</sup>)and<br />did not show the presence of slow Hα components( |<i>V</i><small>LSR</small> | &le; 120km s-<sup>1</sup>)<br />along the edges of the jets.Such slow Hα emission was reported in previous<br />observations and was proposed to arise from turbulent boundary layers be-<br />tween the main flow and the ambient gas. Our results indicate that Hα and<br />[NII] originate from the main jet component(i.e. the ejecta),and also from<br />bow shocks and Hα filaments,but not from turbulent mixing layers.<br />   We also investigated the ionization fraction in the jets using the [NII] / Hα<br />flux ratio. In the case of HH46/47,the ratio is 0.2-0.5 in the main jet<br />component and even higher in some other regions.Shock model calculations<br />show that the ratio is sensitive to the ionization fraction of preshock gas if<br />the shock velocity is less than l00 km s<sup>-1</sup>. The observed high ratio for HH<br />46/47 is expected if its main jet component is considerably ionized,although<br />previous observations proposed a much lower ionization fraction of&le;0.2.<br />The [NII] / Hαflux ratio is significantly smaller than 0.2 in the one-side bow<br />shocks and Hα filaments, indicating that the gas surrounding the ejecta is<br />rather neutral.<br />  For the HL Tau jet,the observed [NII] / Hα flux ratio markedly vary from<br />one region to another: 0.1-0.7 at the base of the jet,less than 0.1 in knot<br />A,~0.2 in knot B,~0.4 in knot C,and ~0.7 in knot D.Because the shock<br/>velocities of the HL Tau jet exceed 100 km s<sup>-1</sup> in some regions,the ratio<br />does not directly reflect the ionization fraction of preshock gas. At the knots<br />A-D,the [NII] / Hαflux ratio increases from <0.1 to 0.7 with distance from<br />the source. This suggests that the preshock density decreases with distance<br />from the source.The ratio at the lateral of the bow shocks is less than<br />~0.1,suggesting that the ambient medium is almost neutral.At the base<br />of the jet,the observed [NII] / Hα flux ratio decreases from 0.7 to 0.1 as the<br />distance from the source increase. This suggests that the ionization fraction<br />decreases with distance as a result of radiative recombination.<br />  We compared the [NII] / Hα ratio in the main jet components of the HH<br />46/47 jet and HL Tau jet. The ratio for the HH 46/47 jet is higher(0.2-0.5)<br />than that for the HL Tau(&le; 0.2),indicating high ionization fraction.Such<br />a difference suggests that the radiation from a nearby O star irradiates the<br />ambient gas of the HH 46/47 system,which is located near the HII region<br />Gum nebula,causing the high ionization fraction in the main jet component.<br />Another possible interpretation is that radiative cooling by recombination is<br />not efficient in the HH 46/47 jet because of its low density,thus allowing the<br />high ionization fraction in the jet significantly away from the driving source.
