Накратко на български

Свръхзвуковите струи от газ, които се образуват при раждането на звезди и кафяви джуджета, са основният обект на анализ. Разбирането им помага да се разберат процесите при формирането на Слънчевата система и около черни дупки и неутронни звезди.

Final Activity Report Summary - JETSET (Jet Simulations, Experiments and Theory)

The JETSET network brought together modellers, observers and laboratory scientists in order to try and understand the remarkable phenomenon accompanying the birth of stars, i.e. the generation of supersonic jets that can stretch for many light-years. These signposts of star formation seem to be nearby, small-scale, in astronomy terms, versions of the jets seen flowing from active galaxies, quasars and gamma-ray bursters. By understanding jets from young stars, we could get clues not only for the formation of our own solar system but also for processes that are going on around exotic objects like black holes and neutron stars. 10 European institutions were involved in the network, training 12 early-stage researchers pursuing PhD studies and five experienced researchers, i.e. postdoctoral fellows. JETSET organised a total of five week-long schools, a number of informal workshops and a closing international conference held in Rhodes, Greece. Some of the scientific highlights included the discovery of jets from young brown dwarfs, which are objects intermediate in mass between stars and planets, the generation of jets in the laboratory that replicated many of the features, such as shocks, degree of collimation and cooling, observed in young stellar object jets, three-dimensional codes that tested how jets were launched from accretion disks and observational support for the idea that jets carried away angular momentum from the disk, thereby allowing for accretion. As a result of the JETSET Marie Curie research training network, many new inter-institutional links were formed. This resulted in an enormous number of European collaborations on existing and future space and ground based facilities and laboratory experiments, as well as in the use of high performance computing.

Цел на проекта

JETSET is a four-year Marie Curie Research Training Network (RTN) designed to build a vibrant interdisciplinary European research and training community centred on rigorous and novel approaches to plasma jet studies, with a focus on flows produced during star formation. The theme of the network is at the confluence of astrophysical observations, theoretical and computational modelling, laboratory experiments, and Grid technology. The core strategy of the network will be to create, for the first time, a powerful interdisciplinary synergy between these domains of expertise within Europe, and use it to break new ground in several key areas related to plasma jets, both in space and in the laboratory. Our main scientific goals will focus on understanding the driving mechanisms of jets around young stars (including their possible crucial link with planet-forming disks); the cooling/heating processes, instabilities and shock structures in stellar and lab jets; and the impact of jets on energy balance and star formation in the galactic medium. The network will overcome regional fragmentation and increase European competitiveness and visibility in these areas by coordinating between nodes the use of resources, and by implementing the joint development of state-of-the-art analysis tools. Lasting world-class results will include: unique sets of theoretical models for jet production with synthetic predictions; coordinated databases of multi-wavelength jet observations; complete sets of laser and pulsed power device experimental benchmarks; cross-validated simulation codes; and the setting up of a European Grid computing facilities. The network training program will provide a core of top-ranking early stage and experienced researchers with in-depth, multidisciplinary expertise in high demand strategic European research fields, such as plasma fusion and numerical fluid-dynamics simulations in climatology, engineering (aircrafts, spacecrafts, automobiles), and medical imaging.
