Notes.  $t_{\rm exp}$ is the exposure time of the observations (or the total exposure time adding together several observations, as in the case of DG Tau); cnts are the collected photons; $L_{\rm X} $ is the X-ray luminosity roughly in the [0.3-10] keV band; $T_{\rm X}$ is the best fit temperature; $L_{\rm j}$ is the linear size of the X-ray source; $z_{\rm X}$ is the distance of the X-ray source from the central protostar; D is the distance of the HH object; LM/HM indicates the low-mass or high-mass young stellar object from which the jet originates.
(a) Improved estimates of $L_{\rm X} $ and $T_{\rm X}$ from Joel Kastner and Ettore Flaccomio, private communication.
(b) The first value is associated with the South-Western jet and the second with the North-Eastern jet in DG Tau.
(c) Values derived from SIMBAD.
(d) See also Bally et al. (2003).
(e) See also Tsuboi et al. (2001).
