... My thesis aims to understand the energetics and composition of the jet near its origin, and its interaction with the ICM , focusing on detailed models of the inner structure of a spectacular radio source Hydra A. The key features of my modelling are that 1) I identify the four bright knots in the northern jet of Hydra A as biconical reconfinement shocks, which result when an over-pressured jet starts to come into equilibrium whit the galactic ...
