SINFONI three-colour image displaying the outflow cavity and jet compared to HST observations of the jet in [Fe II] λ1.64 μm emission. Background: Continuum-subtracted [Fe II] λ1.64 μm emission image of HH 46/47. The observation was obtained using HST WFC3 with the narrowband filter F164N (Program ID: 15178, PI: B. Nisini; Erkal et al. 2021a). Inset: SINFONI three-colour image displaying the outflow cavity and jet. The red emission traces the integrated continuum emission or scattered light from the outflow driving source. The green emission traces the continuum-subtracted integrated molecular hydrogen (H2) emission displaying the V-shaped outflow cavity. The shocked cavity walls lie within the cavity structure seen in scattered light in continuum emission. There is a bright outflow knot at the base of the left cavity wall. Blue emission traces [Fe II] emission, displaying collimated atomic jet emission. The jet culminates in a bright knot or bow shock approximately 1 . 0 $ 1{{\overset{\prime\prime}{.}}}0 $ (450 au) from the source position. This knot does not spatially coincide with the outflow knot seen in H2 emission. The inner part of the HST [Fe II] λ1.64 μm is rotated clockwise by 60° and overplotted in orange contours.
