Notes. Columns 1–6: properties of the ionized gas following the formalism by Reynolds (1986). These values imply a radio jet that approximates a conical flow (ϵ = 1), where gas has a constant (qT = 0) temperature of 104 K, and it is uniformly ionized (qx = 0), with ionization fraction x0. Columns 7–13: radio observables that enter into the calculation. The last two columns report the derived jet mass loss and momentum rates.
