Abstract
We study the structure and emission of the SS 433 jets, especially in the inner and hotter portion inside the X-ray emitting region. We find that the jet beams in this portion are of two-temperature and emit a large amount of high energy gamma photons. Our analyses suggests the thick absorbing envelope to exist in the SS 433 system. Based on our results, we discuss the possible acceleration mechanisms for the SS 433 jets.
