Density slices for different wind configurations. The color corresponds to log10(ρ), where ρ is in units of mp/cm3, and the color-coding is different for the top and bottom rows. The top two panels use the same parameters of the i-wind, Li = 1039 erg s−1, v = 2 × 103 km s−1, but different initial p-wind densities and velocities. In the left panel, the p-wind velocity is the same as in the i-wind, but the density is 60 times higher, and in the right panel, the density is the same as in the i-wind, but the velocity is higher by a factor of 6, i.e., ∼1.2 × 104 km s−1. The bottom left panel shows a simulation for twice higher i- and p-wind velocities, 4 × 103 km s−1 and ∼2.4 × 104 km s−1, respectively. Finally, the bottom right panel shows the case when the i-wind is much weaker than in the bottom left panel. In this case, the jet behavior follows a self-similar solution, when the underdense jet is recollimated by its cocoon. In all simulations, the half-opening angle of the p-wind was the same, ∼4 − 5°
