Theory and observations of a jet in the _ orionis region: HH 444

The discovery of a system of Herbig{Haro objects ejected by young, low massstars in the Orionis region (Reipurth et al. 1998) has given rise to models of thephotoionization of a neutral jet by an external source.We present long{slit spectra of high spectral resolution of HH 444 and nu-merical simula...
