Cartoon presenting interaction between molecular bullet and surrounding material. From the left to right a time evolution is shown starting with an internal shock within the molecular jet where atomic gas produces molecules inside a high-density internal working surface. As the bullet expands both forward and sideways it creates a shock with the surrounding ambient material; in the shocked gas, molecules are formed. The molecules observed in the EHV bullet are produced in lower C/O gas originating from the inner Mach disk, while the molecules from the shocked gas are formed from ambient gas with higher C/O ratio.
