Notes. ^(a) Tangential velocity derived from the observed radial velocities assuming an orientation angle of the jet with respect to the plane of the sky of 34 $^\circ$ (Eislöffel & Mundt 1994). ^(b) $\dot{M}_{\rm jet}$ measured from the luminosity of the [Fe II] 1.64 $\mu$ m for the HVC and LVC. The lower value has been derived assuming an iron solar abundance, while the upper value has been inferred assuming the iron gas-phase abundance derived from the [Fe II]/[P II] ratio.
