Abstract
We present simulations, carried out with the radiation hydrodynamics
code HERACLES, of the interaction between a molecular jet and the
interstellar medium (ISM). We first briefly describe the academic
configuration used. We then present a first series of simulations of a
molecular jet percuting the ISM. We discuss the influence of the
different mechanisms: hydrodynamics, cooling and radiative effects. We
show that the treatment of radiative transfer and feedback has great
consequences over the jet propagation.
