Image Details
Caption: Fig. 5.
The 2.12 μm image of two separate systems of H2 knots. HOD07 2 at 6h7m30.5s, −6°11﹩\arcmin﹩51﹩\arcsec﹩ is likely a small jet with several internal shocks. The bow shock HOD07 3 is located at 6h7m31.6s, −6°12﹩\arcmin﹩47﹩\arcsec﹩. Projecting back from the bow shock along its plausible jet axis, we find a string of faint, slightly extended knots of emission that are also visible on the Spitzer 4.5 μm image. These faint emission features, indicated by arrows, are located at 6h7m33.2s, −6°13﹩\arcmin﹩03﹩\arcsec﹩, at 6h7m34.1s, −6°13﹩\arcmin﹩24﹩\arcsec﹩, and at 6h7m39.3s, −6°14﹩\arcmin﹩01﹩\arcsec﹩. Overall, they appear to form a jet with multiple, faint internal shocks, ending in the bright bow shock.
