Abstract

We will give only a short outline of an analytical treatment for the “working surface” of the astrophysical jet associated with the early stage of star formation based on gas dynamics. Further details will be presented in a separate paper. For a general review of outflow and jet phenomena see [1]. For a detailed observational study of the typical “working surface” HH 34 see [2].
