The ubiquity ofjet phenomena in young stellar objects, active
galactic nuclei, sym- biotic stars, planetary nebulae and x-ray
binaries has driven a broad literature on the astrophysics of
collimated mass ejection. One of the fundamental open problems in
star formation is the understanding of the physical mechanisms by
which mass is ejected from the protostellar system and collimated
into jets. Locally jets will regulate the system angular momentum
and therefore its evolution during the first few million years. At
large scale jets inject momentum into the cloud thus affecting its
star formation efficiency and evolution. Many recent advances in
the star formation field in both theoretical and observa- tional
aspects together with the increasing availability of computational
resources, conveyed for a perfect opportunity to organise this
workshop which we entitled - Jets 2002: Theory and Observations in
YSOs. The workshop main aim was to provide a rich and varied ground
for discussion of thejet phenomenon in different astrophysical
objects, covering interdisciplinary areas such as steady state
winds, time-dependent winds/jets,jet energetics and jet/wind
propagation. The workshop took place at the Faculdade de
Arquitectura da Universidade do Porto from 3-5 September 2002 and
was part of the Joint European National Astronomical Meeting 2002
organized by Sociedade Portuguesa de Astronomia.
